Caught the lights of a taxi and headed straight for the center of townnJumped a train in north before the law even heard I was 'roundnI ran hard from the station to the street to where I was bornnFound the backdoor still open I heard you sleepin' in a room down the hallnnMama said it's stranger when I switched from school to the door butnMama I'm still searching the streets for my soulnStill searchin' searchin' yeahnnHappy birthday Momma I got you some heat from the city streetsn'Cause down there they'll burn your soul for a gram of the dragons teethnAnd I've got fire in my hands and a scream in my heart like a babynCrying out for the sweet cool of your touch help me God I can't be this crazynnI can hear the sirens closing innI can hear the sirens closing innI can hear the sirens closing innForgive me momma I've got the dragon in my skinnnMama said it's stranger when I asked you if my life was dull butnMama I'm still searching the streets for my soulnMama I'm still searching the streets for my soulnnMama I'm still searching the streets for my soulnMama I'm still searching the streets for my soul
