Streets Of Fire
Embracing Desolation: Journey through Night's Flames
Lyrics
When the night's quiet and you don't care anymore
Feeling a sense of tranquility in the quiet of the night, indifference has taken over.
And your eyes are tired and there's someone at your door
Weary eyes indicate fatigue, and someone is knocking at the door.
And you realize you want to let go
Realizing a desire to release and move on from a situation or emotion.
And the weak lies in cold walls you embrace you
Facing emotional challenges represented by the metaphor of cold walls.
At your insides and baby I ain't no liar, I walk
Emphasizing honesty within, suggesting an internal struggle and the narrator's integrity.

Streets of fire
Reiteration of the intense and challenging nature of the streets being traversed.
Now I'm wandering, a loser down the tracks
The narrator is aimlessly moving along a path, feeling like a loser.
An' I'm lyin', but babe I can't go back
Admitting deception but expressing an inability to return to the past.
'Cause in the darkness I hear somebody call my name
In the darkness, there's a mysterious call, possibly symbolizing a beckoning or destiny.
And when you realize how they tricked you this time
Realization of being deceived again, possibly by external forces.
And it's all lies but I'm strung out on the wire, in these
Acknowledging falsehoods but being entangled in a precarious situation.
Streets of fire
Reiteration of walking through intense and passionate streets.
Streets of fire
Continuation of the vivid imagery, suggesting an ongoing struggle or conflict.

I live now, only with strangers
Living in isolation, surrounded only by unfamiliar faces.
I talk to only strangers
Communicating with strangers exclusively, emphasizing a sense of alienation.
I walk with angels that have no place
Associating with angels without a defined place, suggesting an ethereal or uncertain connection.
And don't look at my face
Avoiding direct confrontation, the narrator doesn't want others to see their emotions.
Don't come to my place
Urging others not to visit, indicating a desire for solitude.
'Cause I'm strung out on my wire, cross
Being caught in a precarious situation, represented by the metaphor of a wire.
Streets of fire
Repetition of walking through streets filled with intense emotions and challenges.

Streets of fire, oh yeah
A final declaration emphasizing the fiery and intense atmosphere of the streets.
