And I see papers and papers* Stacked up in formation Which mean much before They're line-ing the fire As a bottomless heat goes To harness your anger Your blood and Your deepest desire Because there's no truth stolen That's been ever brought forward From the minds of the writers Looking face down on the gutter 'Cause this world's full of thinkers And suffragette speakers who deny that they ever wear a dress Oh this god forsaken town's in a mess And all the truths been let out loose Is desperate to amuse As it grabs you by the throat And strings out all the times you've used But now you don't belong you Whisper when you speak You turn yourself to nighttime Trying to find your feet Oh let me run Lord, let me run, So let me run Lord, let me run But as the morning awakens That light sends a shudder The twist of hope that helps you down Is left to rest and stir You back down a hallway To flourish the darkness And you fool yourself You did it all for her And him, and her But I've seen your face before Rich boy playing poor Ravaging the whores Ignoring constant calls Now you don't belong You whisper when you speak You turn yourself to nighttime Trying to find your feet
