The Tear Garden
"The Running Man"
Me - I have my cross to bear
It's twisted, flying through the air
The voices that I hear are muffled
There's no one left but me to share their secrets
I fix my eyes upon the dials
And run through the uncharted miles of nothing
I chase my tail
I'm chasing trails of hollow promises
And it's lonely here
I'm kept alive (somehow)
I stay tranquilised
I leave - I never quite arrive
Your previous smile is fading
I'd love to think that there's an end
Just waiting right around the bend
(Keep falling)
Every turn's a tunnel
I descend
I'm the Running Man
