Alley of the Unknown

In the alley they walk through
Some are old and some are new
Many never want to leave
Some wish that they never knew

In the alley time goes by
With out knowing when it's night
Always have to be acute
And be ready for a fight

Slowly they all disappear
Hardly anyone is here
In the air you can't smell freshness
But you can really feel the fear

In this alley we all know
That we are bound to loose control
It can't ever be to late
To be  you not an unknown
