Lyrics

on the outside, a beautiful thing, on the inside, a bird with a broken wing, chances taken, now the dark angels circle in the wind, you're mistaken, but still you'll do it all again, as he shakes his fist, somethin' dribbles down his chin, can you live like this, just crawlin' underneath their skin, better run.runaway, there is no reason to stay, run.runaway, better run.runaway, fast as these words that i say, run.runaway, from the ashes you will rise, distant crashes in your eyes, though he's made you into an image of his pain, cut and shaved you, like a prisoner on a train, there are broken limbs, and tangled power lines, no songs like hymns, no flowers in the springtime, i found your heart on valentine's day, i tore it apart, with all i do, with all i say, just run. better run.runaway, there is no reason to stay, run.runaway, you just run.runaway, fast as these words that i say, run.runaway, better run.runaway, there is no reason to stay, run.runaway, better run.runaway, fast as these words that i say, run.runaway
