Downtown I walk Through New York City so hot The summer swelter melting Got things on my mind right now In the alleys that I take They just dont give up an inch I turned and saw it all I watched him fall I tried to catch him But they knocked me out cold too Babylon he cried The cost in flesh and blood is rising high Things are falling apart it all seems Bleeding in the gutter The waste of random acts of violence Wheres the Savior to resuce our dreams? Desperations crawling Were victims of a world thats gone so wrong? Hours later when I woke I was lying in some darkened basement rescue mission Theyre tending to my needs and wounds They were such a sorry lot The very bottom of the social ladder I just caught myself before I cried Theyve nothing at all But theyre the only ones there to help Edens sins alive Stalking me Stalking everyone Things are falling apart it all seems Tears that speak in volumes The eyes of all these hopeless people Wheres the Savior to rescue our dreams? Desperations crawling On victims of a power hungry world!
