Panic in the streets

Watching more young lives going nowhere

Trusting those you meet

Is never easy

In this waking nightmare

(No mercy)

Desperation comes too soon

Getting hard to look

To my horizon

(So far now)

Looking out for those I knew

Knowing well the truth

Is that they're long gone

(So long ago)

We are the lost you deny

Faith cast aside

Sentenced to live with the lie

That no-one has the right to their life

Shot down

Shot down on the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down by the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down on the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down by the Mean Streets

Sirens echo out

All in vain too late for the weakest

(No mercy)

Another crime we all make the vow

But we all know there won't be any justice

(No more chances)

They are the lost we deny

Faith cast aside

Sentenced to live with the lie

That no-one has the right to their life

Shot down

Shot down on the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down by the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down on the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down by the Mean Streets

Denied the right to see the light

You'll take for granted it’s your right

Fight for the right to stay alive

Safely away from harm

Solo

We are the lost you deny

Faith cast aside

Sentenced to live with the lie

That no-one has the right to their life

Shot down

Shot down on the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down by the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down on the Mean Streets

Shot down

Shot down by the Mean Streets

On the Mean Streets
