That high scream suddenly breaks through the early morning quiet
The phone rings, no-one to hear or realize
Who can do such a thing and get some rest in the night?
You’re clean and far from here, there’s not a single reason to doubt
But there’s something mean when you say never
It’s never crossed your mind
Though you felt tempted once
But there is something mean when you say never
No, you’re not one of those
No tremors in your voice
But there’s something mean
That street seems to get narrow with every single step you walk
It gets narrower, it gets narrow, it’s harder to find out a path
Every window, every corner seems to hold a watching eye
Lucky you, a regular dude, with nothing in your gaze to hide
But there’s something mean when you say never
It’s never crossed your mind
Though you felt tempted once
That high scream suddenly breaks through the early morning quiet

No tremors in your voice
But there’s something mean
That high scream suddenly breaks through every single step you walk
It gets narrower with no-one to hear or realize
Lucky you, a regular dude that gets some rest in the night
You’re clean and so so far from that untiring watching eyeAnd there’s something mean when you say never
It’s never crossed your mind
Though you felt tempted once
There is something mean when you say never
No, you’re not one of those
No tremors in your voice
There’s something mean
