Down from this high room
Down to the town
Where so many wasted days are lost
To the cutting wind
Oh, crawl like a baby
Down on my knees
And kissing the hand
That lives and feeds on suffering
And into the future
As the hours turn from days to years
I remember them
I won't be sold again
And I try and I try
But I always rely on the things that I'm told
And I said what I said
Now my only regret is the fear I hold
Yeah, and we're running now
(Yeah, yeah)
Oh, yeah, we're running now
To the sound of the city
And I look at their faces
So many faces
Grey as their souls are grey
As grey as the towns they build
Ah where order alone is sacrosanct
Number all your citizens
As the cities fill
And they'll live for a future
Where nothing ever changes
Nothing is left to kill
Oh, God, I think they will
And I try and I try
But I always rely on the things that I'm told
And I said what I said
Now my only regret is the fear I hold
Yeah, and we're running now
(Yeah, yeah)
Ooh, yeah, we're running now
To the sound of the city
Yeah...
We're running now
And I try and I try
But I always rely on the things that I'm told
And I said what I said
Now my only regret is the fear I hold
Yeah, and we're running now
(Yeah, yeah)
Oh, yeah, we're running now
(Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, we're running now
(Yeah, yeah)
Ooh, yeah, we're running now
To the sound of the city
