Lyrics
I hear the cold streets calling me, (cold streets)
I sense the call of the cold streets,
I hear the cold streets calling me,
Reiteration of the attraction towards the cold streets,
I feel the dark dark swallow me, (dark dark)
I experience the engulfing darkness intensely,
And now the black it colours me,
Now the darkness becomes a part of me,
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
Expressive interlude without specific meaning,
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
-I might push up screaming,
Feeling a sense of isolation and emotional struggle,
'Cause I don't feel so alive,
-This is one night why,
-I'm all alone tonight,
-And i'm still dreaming.
-But when the cold streets fade away, (Cold streets)
Anticipation for the end of the cold street experience,
When will the sun come back again,
Hope for the return of brightness and positivity,
And all the back streets and alley ways, (back streets)
Awareness of the less-traveled streets and hidden paths,
I see the cold streets night and day.
Ongoing exposure to the challenging cold streets day and night,
whoa-oa-oa-oa
Repetition of expressive interlude without specific meaning,
whoa-oa-oa-oa
-I might push up screaming,
Continued sense of loneliness, yearning, and dreaming,
Wake me up from dreaming,
-'Cause I don't feel so alive,
-This is one night why,
-I'm all alone tonight,
-And I'm still dreaming,
-'Cause I don't feel so alive,
-This is one night why,
-I'm all alone tonight,
-I'm not alone tonight.
-Whoa-oa-oa
Repetition of expressive interlude without specific meaning,
Whoa-oa-oa (Whoa-oa-oa)
-'Cause I don't feel so alive,
Reiteration of feelings of aloneness, lack of vitality, and persistent dreaming,
This is one night why,
-I'm all alone tonight,
-And I'm still dreaming
-'Cause I don't feel so alive,
-This is one night why,
-I'm all alone tonight,
-I'm all alone tonight.
Acknowledgment of being alone in the current night,
