Roy Harper - Nowhere to Run To lyrics
[Roy Harper - Nowhere to Run To lyrics]
I'm a rabbit on fire
On fire with mascared eyes
I'm a white rat acquired by the lab
I'm due to be shot shot with experiment
Waiting in line for the next stab
I've got nowhere to run to
I've got nowhere to go
And no way of telling you
That none of you know i burn in hellfire
Kept alive in my deathbed
I'm a monkey with wire in my head
I can't touch my face
Rub my eyes or hear anything suspended twixt
Living and dead they say I don't know
But I live under pressure
Showing great symptoms
Of breakdown and fracture
I've got nowhere to run to
I've got nowhere to go
And no way of telling you
That none of you know
If I (RH) had my way i'd be in there today
Turn the voltage on you burn you down
With the whole of your school
With your lessons on how
To dismiss others' feelings
While feeling that you're
Always ever so kind
Never cruel but that's you
Only you of all us creatures on earth
That could only be you if only you cared
Not to kill not to torture
Not to need to cause pain fear and suffering
To be cool you'd have all the friends
And the ends and the means
To live with the give
And the fox in the glove (the atmosphere)
On this jewel (the planet) but that's you
Only you of all us creatures on earth
That could only be you
You're the mournful red eye
Of the dog in the cage the howl of despair
From the pound forsaken forgotten
The live definition the sad lonely meaning
Of hound
And you've got nowhere to run to
Nowhere to go and no way of telling me
That this isn't so for some of us know
And will always care to do so
On fire with mascared eyes
I'm a white rat acquired by the lab
I'm due to be shot shot with experiment
Waiting in line for the next stab
I've got nowhere to run to
I've got nowhere to go
And no way of telling you
That none of you know i burn in hellfire
Kept alive in my deathbed
I'm a monkey with wire in my head
I can't touch my face
Rub my eyes or hear anything suspended twixt
Living and dead they say I don't know
But I live under pressure
Showing great symptoms
Of breakdown and fracture
I've got nowhere to run to
I've got nowhere to go
And no way of telling you
That none of you know
If I (RH) had my way i'd be in there today
Turn the voltage on you burn you down
With the whole of your school
With your lessons on how
To dismiss others' feelings
While feeling that you're
Always ever so kind
Never cruel but that's you
Only you of all us creatures on earth
That could only be you if only you cared
Not to kill not to torture
Not to need to cause pain fear and suffering
To be cool you'd have all the friends
And the ends and the means
To live with the give
And the fox in the glove (the atmosphere)
On this jewel (the planet) but that's you
Only you of all us creatures on earth
That could only be you
You're the mournful red eye
Of the dog in the cage the howl of despair
From the pound forsaken forgotten
The live definition the sad lonely meaning
Of hound
And you've got nowhere to run to
Nowhere to go and no way of telling me
That this isn't so for some of us know
And will always care to do so
