Bright Lights Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Young boy comes searching for the bright lights
He's looking for those "streets of gold"
He never finds them
Down an alley there's a back street gang
They say "Kid you shouldn't walk down here alone"

[Verse 2]
They really take him to the cleaners
They turn his pockets inside out
Then they cut him
Leave him lying in a pool of blood
In the city no one hears you when you shout

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
No friends, no food, no home, no money
He learns to scavenge to survive
He becomes an animal
See him running through the streets at night
You can almost see the jungle in his eyes

[Verse 3]
His mum and dad wait for a phone call
They're never gonna see their son again
Something's changed him
Don't go near him he's a wild boy now -- This moth is dying in the flame

[Outro]
He's an animal - see him running through the streets at night
He's an animal - beneath the dirt his skin turns white
He's a wild boy
