[Verse 1]

I see through your swagger, I sweep up your sickness

I find what is lost and thrown away

I stoop for your secrets, I bend for your blood

I kill corruption, so it lives another day

[Verse 2]

I'm a wallflower in the darkness in fireproof clothes

Undercover, undervalued, underpaid

I ride the edges and the cracks, I see behind the curtain

I am invisible, I am your moonlight maid

[Chorus]

Sifting through the streets of Kebabylon

Chasing down the ghosts of indiscretion and lust

These empty, filthy streets are where I belong

Down among the devilry, down in the dust

[Verse 3]

And you're already dreaming as I claw up your condom

As your syringe cracks underneath my boot

You've crashed on the couch, passed out on the porch

Such a lover, such a liar, such a brute

And with the evidence destroyed, your sleep will be sound

I'm your angel, your accomplice, and look what I've found

[Chorus]

Sifting through the streets of Kebabylon

Chasing down the ghosts of indiscretion and lust

These empty, filthy streets are where I belong

Down among the devilry, down in the dust

[Post-Chorus]

So join me on the streets of Kebabylon

We can find a story for the ages tonight

These empty, filthy streets are where I belong

Always trying hard to outrun the light
