Veronica Collens • Words of a Song
Run For Your Lives
[Rock Opera]
- The time has come to make a break
- Of what we're very sure
- The guard who prevents liberty
- Is stationed at our door
- There is no place to run and hide
- They always find you in
- And trespass on that private time
- You try too hard to win
- Remember how it used to be
- How it was before
- We had the time to cuddle up
- And talk forever more
- Remember how we could decide
- How our life should be led
- What time we wanted to get up
- What time to go to bed
- Now home is like barrack room
- There is no time to think
- About the things you really love
- All hope just seems to sink
- Gone are the days of sweet ideas
- Daydreams are out
- There's no time left for living
- So what's it all about
- We're ready there's no time to lose
- To run now for our lives
- And with that great discovery
- Our freedom will survive
- Keep close together hand in hand
- To make our big mistake
- The walls and fences are too high
- So we'll walk through the Gate
- Of what we're very sure
- There's the gate
- See the gate
- Not far now
- Nearly there
- See the people
- Other side
- Now we are both
- There
- See the gate
