Running to stand still

And so she woke up
from where she was lying still.
Said we got to do something about where we're going.
Step on a steam train,
step out of the driving rain.
Maybe run from the darkness in the night
singing Ha La La La De Day.
Singing Ha La La La De Day.
Sweet the sin
but bitter the taste in my mouth.
I see seven towers
but I only see one way out.
You got to cry without weeping,
talk without speaking,
scream without raising your voice, you know.
I took the poison, from the poison stream,
then I floated out of here
singing Ha La La La De Day.
Singing Ha La La La De Day.
She runs through the streets
with her eyes painted red.
Under black belly of cloud in the rain
in through a doorway she brings me
white gold and pearls stolen from the sea,
she is raging,
she is raging and the storm blows up in her eyes.
She will suffer the needle chill,
she is running to stand still.
