Lyrics

It was on the street so evil, so bad that even hell disowned it
Every single step was trouble for the fool who stumbled on it
Eyes within the dark were watchin' I felt that sudden chill of danger
Something told me to keep on walkin' told me I should not have gone there

Baby, because you cut me like a knife without your love in my life
I'm out, I'm walkin' the night 'cause I just canmt stop this feelin'
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture

She was up a stair to nowhere
A room forever I'll remember
She said as though I should have known her
Tell me, what's your pain or pleasure?
Every little thing you find here is simply for the thrill you're after
Loneliness or hearts on fire
I am here to serve all masters

She said reality is a knife when there's no love in your life
Unmerciful is the night when you just can't stop this feelin'
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture

And I still can't find the meaning of the face I keep on seeing
Was she real or am I dreaming?
Did the sound of your name turn a wheel, strike a flame in me?

Baby, because you cut me like a knife without your love in my life
I'm out, I'm walkin' the night and I just can't stop this feeling
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture

She said reality is a knife when there's no love in your life
Unmerciful is the night when you just can't stop this feelin'
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture
