RUNNING TO STAND STILL

So she woke up, woke up from where she was-lying still
said I, gotta do something about where we're going.
Step on a steam train, step out of the driving rain
maybe run from the darkness in the night.
Singing ah, ah la la la dee day
ah la la la dee day.

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
scream without raising your voice.
You know I took the poison from the poison stream
then I floated outta here
Singing ah, ah la la la dee day
ah la la la dee day.

She runs through the streets with her eyes painted red.
Under a black belly of cloud in the rain,
in through a doorway she brings me,
white golden pearls stolen from the sea.
She is raging, she is raging,
and the storm blows up in her eyes.
She will suffer the needle chill.
She's running to stand still.
