Lyrics
I've stolen sapphires But lost the diamond I've stolen rubies But lost my love I gambled all in the Dreaming City Pearls slipped through my fingers But none so pretty None so pure Tossed to the gutter in a back-alley hell I'll have to fight but it won't go well Like wolves they circle, they snarl, they prowl They rush to the kill, see them leap and howl Where has he taken my Joy, my love Left me here surrounded All is lost I robbed them of their treasure But lost the prize My dreams, etched in silver were only hes Lost in the maze of this city of lies Where good men go when all their hope dies Where he'l steal your lover, wrap her in chains Drag her away so that nothing remains But the filth, the squalor and the stench of decay I am Despair for he made me this way I'll fight but I'm cornered and alone in this slum I'm a desperate man, I'm as doomed as they come
