Runaways 03:55
I can't recall the last time you held my hand or lead me to bed without a drink We're strangers in these sheets, lost in the afterglow Of a love that's grown cold and a language that I don't know We're Runaways, running from love We're Runaways, love just isn't enough. Feel the tension in touch, the motion and the rush Like a foreign dance we, fake all the romance Baby it's not like it once was ... have we both given up. We're Runaways, running from love We're Runaways, love just isn't enough. Baby it's not like it once was ... I'm sorry I've given up.

There is a day that we'll all feel his string. Like the crash and the flight of lightning. A thief in the night rushes in with a grin but I'll be damned if I'll go again. Death is like passing from room to room, Awaking from a blurred dream. He can greet me and meet me with whiskey or drink and a hell of a handshake from me. Oh, Death where is your sting? I'll be ready, my friend, in the end. So have a drink until then. Sometimes life feels just so God dammed, that we welcome the tilt of the drink But Death like the friend, who leads you back home, rests with you there while you dream Oh, Death where is your sting? I'll be ready, my friend, in the end. So have a drink until then. Death's an adventure every man needs to face, to look past the peak of unknown. But I can't see past this day that I'm living ... and I'm not really ready to go home. Oh, Death where is your sting? I'll be ready, my friend, in the end. So have a drink until then.

Who are we, in this life But vapors breathed in deep Feeble fables of lessons learned The mild and the meek For we all think the longer thoughts and give the shorter way We're all dancing the devils song and shivering home to pray We are the ships in the seas The branch in the wake of the breeze We are the ships in the seas Teetering ... Teetering For we all think the longer thoughts and give the shorter way We're all dancing the devils song and shivering home to pray Pick your poison the bottles free Don't mix up the prayer or slir So go ahead boy and bend your knee You ain't tellin' him nothing he ain't already heard We are the ships in the seas The branch in the wake of the breeze We are the ships in the seas The wild and the weak We are the ships in the seas The branch in the wake of the breeze We are the ships in the seas Teetering ... Teetering

I never thought, I'd be the man To hold you close, to hold your hand Be it fear or foolishness My heart wasn't ready for this You can lay your head on down I'll do my best to be around When you came to life I arose with a strange divide See I'm a man of strength and weakness My heart wasn't ready for this You deserve ... The best of me A fired heart, a bended knee You deserve ... The best of me When you came to life I arose with a strange divide See I'm a man of strength and weakness My heart wasn't ready for this You deserve ... The best of me A fired heart, a bended knee You deserve ... The best of me
