I watch these wet streets Through the froth in my glass Waterfront and concrete All dressed in a misty drag The Boothill boys are out They sneak with their stash Out in the cold Into the dark Falling about Blow by blow Over the crossroads I'm downbound again Out on the wasteland Some drift to understand Some to regret Out on the wasteland I drift to forget Out on the wasteland (Out on the wasteland) Some drift to understand Some to regret Out on the wasteland I drift to forget I wanted to step back Got pushed one step ahead Didn't ask for love Yet got a broken heart instead "Sorry, not tonight" That's what the doorman said I'm hollow-eyed I've been lied to And I've been lying to myself Over the crossroads I'm downbound again Out on the wasteland Some drift to understand Some to regret Out on the wasteland I drift to forget Out on the wasteland (Out on the wasteland) Some drift to understand Some to regret Out of the wasteland I drift to forget Out on the wasteland (Out on the wasteland) Out of the wasteland (Out of the wasteland) Out on the wasteland I drift to forget
