Hungry eyes looked up to me
I swore to God
I’d put it right they’ll see
Temptation whispered in my ear
Hard times
Took away my fear

It’s too late to hope and pray
Under a blood red sky
On both sides the river lies
With no escape in sight

No way out
No saving me
Those days are gone
No looking back
That I can see
Those days are gone

Shot guns and black and white flash
Red lights
There’s no turning back
Cat’s eyes glow in the street
White lines point to freedom from the heat

It’s too late to hope and pray
Under a blood red sky
On both sides the river lies
With no escape in sight

No way out
No saving me
Those days are gone
No looking back
That I can see
Those days are gone

On both sides the river lies
With no escape in sight

[Chorus]
