Streets of Kerosene

Salvation in the midnights
You were a whisper in the nightwinds
Then you slipped from beneath my fingertips
I witnessed, morning rising in the shivering mist
Midnight Resurrections on the streets of kerosene
I could have sworn I saw on an angel or two in the mezzanine
Desire you deified me
This is the mirror of moonlight
I witnessed smoke rising in the streets of kerosene
This is the night universe
You were the heartbeat in the darkness
the Decadence I dreamed on the streets of kerosene
Desire this fire in my fingertips
I wanted and I wanted endlessly
