God of 42nd Street

I am the god of 42nd Street

You may not love me but I'm hard to beat

I am the lord of all you see and feel

You may not want me but I'm, oh, so real

You cannot feel me when the light is on

So come to darkness, I won't be very long

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the light

Close your eyes, my friend and then there'll be no fright

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the way

All the fire and all the hate won't change the feelings

Won't change your fate

So stop your crying and feed my faith

I'll kill your God and take his place

So kill the leaches in your little dream

The blood's not spilling, it's not what it seems

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the light

Close your eyes, my friend and then there'll be no fright

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the way

Hey, have you ever walked beneath the rain

In hope of washing away the pain and all your tears?

Hey, have you ever talked of all the shame

Within your everlasting, everlasting fear of me?

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the light

Close your eyes, my friend and then there'll be no fright

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the way

I am the god of 42nd Street

You may not love me but I'm hard to beat

I am the lord of all you see and feel

You may not want me but I'm, oh, so real

You cannot feel me when the light is on

So come to darkness, I won't be very long

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the light

Close your eyes, my friend and then there'll be no fright

Close your eyes, my darling and you'll find the way
