[Intro]
[Verse]
When the sun goes down
We roll up all of the sidewalks
We lock our doors - we lose our minds
And the neighbours do the same
From somewhere across the airwaves
Blood flows through our living room screens
Entertain us we say
[Chorus]
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
[Verse]
It’s the same old song and dance
That puts us to bed at night
And the same old chemicals
That bring us back to life
Somewhere across the city
A vagrant soul is bleeding out
In a chorus we say
[Chorus]
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
[Bridge]
I’m a lion wound up when it doesn’t matter
I’m a liar bound up when something’s at stake
I beat my chest and shrivel in my corner
Of Limboland with a chip on my shoulder
And a gun in my hand
To build my walls higher – build them higher
Build them higher – build them higher
Build them higher – c’est la vie
[Interlude]
[Verse]
It’s not that I’m coward without any feelings
It’s not that I don’t wish that I could change the world
It’s just that I ll get swept away
When shit creek overruns its banks
Hear the rich man say
[Chorus]
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
From miles away
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
On a holiday
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Give me disarray!
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Over truffle soufflé
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
Let it run – Let it run – Let it run
