Sidewalks are flooded with every wolf wanna-be
You Gekko's a phone call away, but he's just out of reach
Perched up in a high rise while buildings grow ever taller
Why's everyone gotta be in everybody's business while behavior falters
Keep walking through jaded valleys toward covered mirrors in a hallway
You'll never truly see you actions until reflections are caught always
Go easy on your lovelight
Go easy on concrete
Go easy in conclusions without all facts splayed at your feet
Go easy in your bones when they feel like deceit
Or you just might find yourself in exile on wall street

There's vampires around every corner just waiting for their bloodlust chance
Too many dreamers feel compelled to hover, they just want to get in your pants
Too few exude patience or question why and what it's all worth
Just like too many clowns stepping out of car canal like an endless birth
There's escapees from the asylum, misguided voices preying on the scene
Snorting themselves into oblivion, never finding it out what it all means
There's blinding worship to the heavens as the devil sows your greed
You can walk endless miles praying you don't get swallowed up by the sea
You're caught in an endless ocean
Currents caught you as you to breathe
You're caught without knowing how they got their hooks into your meat
You're caught in web of ego, feeling cut off at the knees
Standing on your stumps in exile on wall street

I saw you indiscreetly say "that's what we did" though no one else was there to see
Maybe it's all in your mind how heroic you are, that's what it is for me
There's a heavy toll at ornamental gates when the party reaches its peak
Then comes the heavier crash when all the tips reward stupidity
Tornados of dysfunction sit at tables of king makers' fleet
Defacing spirit, collecting tokens from everyone that they meet
Don't share that it's all out of tune when you're eyes and ears can't find the beat
Stuck like a portrait of friendships, hanging fake currency won't help you eat
You pay if you're worship
Where pay's expected before belief
You gotta pay with every drop of blood just to strive to be free
You gotta pay a lifetime of good deeds to see the cosmos in a leaf
While the wind blows all the trash toward exile on wall street
