Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gettin' lost, singin' their song, oh
Caught up in all I've done, oh
It's all I know but not what I need, oh
Cut by my love, cut till I bleed
[Verse 2]
So, I want to run to your shelter tonight
Run to the shelter tonight
United in silent resistance
Of bowing to false kings
[Verse 3]
So let me run to your shelter tonight
Run from this meaningless pantomime
I'll swallow my pride, give up the pretense
Of bowing to false kings
[Verse 4]
I bought their smiles, liquid and smooth
Took their words for the truth, hey
Edge of light and shade, ah
My broken soul once more enslaved
[Verse 5]
So, I want to run to your shelter tonight
Run to the shelter tonight
United in silent resistance
Of bowing to false kings
[Verse 6]
So, let me run to your shelter tonight
Run from this meaningless pantomime
I see the false kings
I see that all this must end
[Verse 7]
When there's no love in my embrace
Cold blood runs through my veins
If I soar without grace
Do I still soar?
[Verse 8]
I need the love in your embrace
Open doors, brand new ways
End my wars and erase
And I'm yours
[Verse 9]
So, I want to run to your shelter tonight
Run to the shelter tonight
United in silent resistance
Of bowing to false kings
[Verse 10]
So, let me run to your shelter tonight
Run from this meaningless pantomime
I'll swallow my pride, give up the pretense
Yes, I wined them and I dined 'em
On that cyanide
