I’ve been running straight ahead
The arrow points for me, oh I point for him
Now what is it worth running for?
Find it, hold it, until it’s yours in gold
But then you come…
Take the rug, from the feet
Where is the land, beneath those harsh hands?
The rug, from the feet
Abandon, the promise of plans
Steal the water from its sea, demand they answer from their knees
From their knees.
I feel I’ve played this game before
These walls shed their old stale familiar light
Wishing for something more
Withstand, hold fast and take the night
But then you come…
I can see it all play out
But now it’s not my choice, not my hour, I am still sifting through the dark
Forced to stay here for a while
Act as passersby, crossing not the yellow lines.
Take the rug, from the feet
Where is the land, beneath those harsh hands?
The rug, from the feet
Abandon, the promise of plans
Steal the water from its sea, demand they answer from their knees
From their knees.
