Handel ohne Preis

What are we running from?
and why is the sky on fire.
I didn’t want to come.
I don’t know where to hide.

My body’s hurting, can’t we stop
will they hunt us down?
my body’s tied to strings and every 
heartbeat pulls me back home.

Where are we running to?
the pale sky’s aching in my eyes
my lovers curl up in the gloom
never knowing if we were right

my mother’s gaze won’t rest on me
yet I can feel her grip clenching
just bite through the pain I feel
heart unfit for a life in between.

What are we running from?
this is not their sky on fire?
but I won’t bow to their guns.
but I can’t help feeling tired.

I hold your hands in fear
can not hold you nor ever let you go
they can’t find us in here
we’re living behind bars but are we -

But are we better off this way
giving the demons a face
a cruel bet on love we placed
on a table that deems us misplaced

But are we better of this way?
You said to run away.

What are we running from?
I didn’t want to come.

runaway

Hung your coat by the door for a hello you were smiling
knowing you knowing love knowing love knowing pain
oh I tried for you the nightsky glows there's no hiding
knowing you knowing love knowing love knowing..

burn the bridges, burn them down
leave the ship with no need leave for good leave to drown

and I tried for you the sky's full of light there's no hiding
