Don’t live your life like the walking corpses
Hands out, eyes up, lack of knowledge abound
Now is the time that we look for the answers
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Run away, run away, little baby
Run away, run away from the sun
Run away, run away, little baby
This is your life, that’s the way that it’s done
And why can’t we see some things weren’t meant to be?
We’re getting no answers, getting no answers
There needs to be some rationality
We’re getting no answers, getting no answers
Don’t live your life like the walking corpses
Hands out, eyes up, lack of knowledge abound
Now is the time that we look for the answers
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Run away, run away, little baby
Run away, run away from the sun
Run away, run away, little baby
This is your life, that’s the way that it’s done
And I’ll fight for you
Against these lies they say are true
And I’ll fight for you
We’ll break across and start anew
And run away, run away, run away
We’re getting no answers, getting no answers
And run away, run away
We’re getting no answers, getting no answers
I’ll bite the head off the Virgin Mary
I’ll take her down and I’ll send her to hell
I’ll bite the head off the Virgin Mary
I’ll take her down and I’ll send her to hell
Don’t give a f*** if this vision is scary
In their minds they’ve got salvation to sell
Don’t live your life like the walking corpses
You be the wolf; see the prey, take it down
Tonight’s the night that we look for the answers
Tonight, tonight we’ll turn it around
And why can’t we see some things weren’t meant to be?
We’re getting no answers, we’re getting no answers
There needs to be some rationality
We’re getting no answers, we’re getting no answers
