Run For Your Life

from A Sad Affair by Musical Juice

about

How did it end up like this? Hate. Lies. Deceit. This is not what you set out to achieve. Where are the values you all believed in? It's now become so unpredictable and dangerous. You can't trust anyone. You've lost control. They've taken over and stolen your dreams. You can't stay here. Leave it all behind. Save yourself. Run for your life.

lyrics

Down in the sewer there's a new game
Selling tears just to cloud up your eyes
Then they stab you in the back
When you're sleeping
Down in the gutter there's a new way
You can't tell the truth from the lies
And they steal all the secrets your keeping

Better run for your life
You're in danger
You taught your children too well
Now they're taking sweets from a stranger
In this hell

Up on a cloud they put an angel
With a smile that could turn you to stone
Yet they're down on their knees and they're praying
Hiding in the shadows is the jackal
He's waiting to get you alone
Then he's in for the kill and the slayiing

Better run for your life
No use fighting
He's prepared for the battle too well
And he'll cut you faster than lightning
In this hell

Down in the ground are the memories
But they may as well have never been born
For they lived and they died all for nothing
Out on a limb are the dreamers
But the chances they hoped for are gone
And hate is the new way of loving

Better run for your life
Can't you see it?
We all know the answer too well
But some just don't want to believe it
In this hell
