Broken Lights in Brooklyn

[Verse] In the shadow of the bridges Where the alleys lie Lurks a tale that's whispered A truth denied In the heartbeat of the city Where sorrow roams A monster's out there hunting Lost among the homes [Verse 2] He's a ghost of misfortune A silent Chilling breath Wearing the guise of ordinary Cloaked in death In the flicker of the street lamps Darkness preys Eyes of the oblivious cast aversion in the haze [Chorus] Oh The broken lights of Brooklyn Twinkling Telling lies Every night a story Where another spirit dies They say he's a legend An echo lost in time But the truth is twisted Hidden in his crime [Verse 3] Down by the old river Whispers start to fade Murals of the victims paint the nights in shades The cops they wander clueless Badges turned blind In the bustling avenues Sanity's hard to find [Verse 4] He’s not a beast Nor creature Just a fractured soul Wearing masks of anger That the night console In the heartbeat of the midnight Under the cloak of blues Lies a heart in torment An enigma to infuse [Chorus] Oh The broken lights of Brooklyn Twinkling Telling lies Every night a story Where another spirit dies They say he's a legend An echo lost in time But the truth is twisted Hidden in his crime
