    Lyrics:
    This street holds it's secrets like a cobra holds it's kill
    This street minds it's business like a jailer minds his jail
    That house there is haunted
    That door's a portal to hell
    This street holds it's secrets very well
    That man wears his skin like a dancer wears her veils
    That man stalks his victims like a cancer stalks a cell
    That man's soul has left him his heart's as deadly as a rusty nail
    That man sheds his skin like a veil
    Lord, you play a hard game, you know we follow every rule
    Then you take the one thing we thought we'd never lose
    All I ask is if she's with you please keep her warm and safe
    And if it's in your power please purge the memory of this place
    This life holds it's secrets like a sea shell holds the sea
    Soft and distant calling like a fading memory
    This life has it's victories but it's defeats tear so viciously
    This life holds it's secrets like the sea

    Michael Timmons is the most profound songwriter of the past thirty years, period.
    Also, his guitar-playing, like this entire band, is seriously under-acknowledged. Some of the most effective, captivating guitar notes I’ve ever heard have come from this guy.

    Perfect song. I’m a night owl. I’ve had enough today so just went to bed. I just reached for my phone thinking I’d find something there. Well, I hit the gold. “And if it’s in your power please purge the memory of this place.” Thank you for the asking that we be kept warm and safe.”

    Discovered this moody gem decades ago on “ Homicide life on the street”. Great vibe.

    This life has its victories but its defeats tear so viciously
    This life holds its secrets like the sea

    Maybe some of it was a bit over-done? The most powerful messages are subtle and kept simple.... like: Give Peace a Chance... or in general: Margot Timmins' singing....
