Everyone has Dark Streets, in their mind and memory. These are my Dark Streets. Hidden, obscure, darkened - after all we're only human, trying to find our way home.
The musical concept behind Dark Streets has no need of explanation, it serves as an explanation in itself.
- The "Dark Streets" concept has a urban ring to it, and with good reasons. Fernando Pessoa watched over the dark streets of Lisbon, Portugal. The person playing and singing here watches over his dark streets here and wonders when he will come back home again. There's no eye for an eye, no tooth for a tooth. I have seen Judas hanging down from that tree. If you're ashamed - if you are down and estranged, go down there by that tree. If you have lost all hope - if you have lost all faith, go down there by that tree. I have never asked forgiveness, I've never said a prayer - I've hurt the ones who love me, I've left them forsaken, now will you meet me there down by that tree?
