Harper Roy - Nowhere To Run lyrics

rate me

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 symptons

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
