We Ran the Race - Anthony Riley

"Don't speak, don't realise, don't wake up or they'll skin you alive" That's what they say to the boys and girls Trading our lives for the old man's time You got the preacher on the phone He asks if you're alone Tell him "Go Fuck off" You don't wanna know Did you hear the news? No one reads the news Did you see the noose? Oh now she's on the run (all I do, all I say) Can't look back got her hand on your gun (All I want is...) She's on the run (all I do, all I say) Moving so fast she's chasing the sun (All I want is...) Two years on my feet What's to eat Can't sleep Counting sheep Hear the creep, creep, creep, creep That's what they sell to the boys and girls Life in debt to a broken world You got your mother on the phone No you're not alone Waves are picking up now you gotta go Did you hear the news? No one reads the news Did you see the noose? Oh now she's on the run Can't look back got her hand on your gun Now she's on the run Moving so fast she's chasing the sun All I do, all I say, all I want is All I do, all I say, all I want is (Now she's) Run Kelly Run Feast your eyes on the setting sun Run Kelly Run Feast your eyes on the setting sun

Like a river that flows Currents evolve Tasting your lips in ways I can't control Move a little sweeter Kissing by the fire Dance til the sun comes up I've never felt anything like this before I've never felt anything like this before You read my mind Yeah you know me babe Yeah you know me babe Read my mind Yeah you know me babe Yeah you know me babe Show me where you wanna go There's bays along all this coast Let's find a little spot for you and me Move a little sweeter Kissing by the fire Dance til the sun comes up I've never felt anything like this before I've never felt anything like this before You read my mind Yeah you know me babe Yeah you know me babe Read my mind Yeah you know me babe Yeah you know me babe I've never felt anything like this before I've never felt anything like this before I've never felt anything like this before
