[Verse 1]
I'm walking down Times Square in the Electric Daylight
The sailors on shore leave stand out in their perfect white
I'm up here with my spying glass at the window up above
For better or for worse it's a perverse universe, my love

[Chorus]
Now I know, I should have never walked over the bridge I burned
Now I know, somehow I don't feel so alone

[Verse 2]
And remember to free far away from the unbridled, and the impudent
The malicious, and the unlucky
For these being full of bad demons or rays are maleficent
And like lepers and people stricken with plague
They harm not only by touch but even by proximity and by sight, Dig it!

You mutter underneath your breath, it echoes around the world
Everybody comes from nowhere
There is hope, it loops up in the air

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
You said I used to be handsome if you screwed up your eyes
Professors and vampires drank up all the tears I cried
Now there's a bird at my window, he feeds upon the pane pain
And sometimes he sings to me - a mocking bird in the twilight of infamy
[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
Now I know, I should have never walked over the bridge I burned
Now I know, they've burned one sinner and the others are sadly following

[Outro][x3]
Now I know
