In back-alley street <br />where every alley meets <br />in every corner of the world <br />everybody's popping pills. <br />Why take drugs when you could love? <br />Why destroy the temple of God? <br />These are the battle fields <br />so they dope you up so you can't feel <br />so you can't tell what is real <br />but this is real, this is real <br />these are the battlefields. <br />In 'Charlie Brown, ' a Coldplay song, <br />we still glow in the dark <br />with broken hearts, broken hearts <br />forever in the dark <br />with broken hearts. <br />Let us shine, <br />let us see <br />take the needles <br />out of our veins <br />and pray <br />and escape <br />back-alley street.<br /><br />Jeremy Rodgers<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/back-alley-street/
