RUNNING TO STAND STILL

And so she woke up woke up From where she was lying still Said we got to do something about where we're going Step on a steam train Step out of the driving rain Maybe run from the darkness in the night Singing Ha La La La De Day Ha La La La De Day Ha La La La De Day Sweet the sin But bitter the taste in my mouth I see seven towers But I only see one way out You got to cry without weeping Talk without speaking Scream without raising your voice, you know I took the poison, from the poison stream, Then I floated out of here Singing Ha La La La De Day Ha La La La De Day Ha La La La De Day She runs through the streets With her eyes painted red Under black belly of cloud in the rain In through a doorway she brings me White gold and pearls, stolen from the sea She is raging She is raging and the storm blows up in her eyes She will suffer the needle chill She is running to stand still
