SEE HOW THEY RUN
Words and music by Winston Apple
You book your passage
You seal your fate
The Ship of Fools sinks without a trace
No explanations are needed
No expectations avowed
Nobody is looking for answers
We're just talking and laughing a bit too loud
See how they run, see how they,
Ooh, see how they run, see how they run
In the neon lighthouse, an angel in disguise
Stares at you with a hunger you will never recognize
The compromises you make
Don't seem to take her by surprise
She can see right through you
But she chooses to believe your lies
See how they run..
Love has found you
You take her by the hand
Then you feel a stranger grab you
From the place where she was standing
Do you see how they run?
Burning rainbows as they go, yeah
See how they run
Always after that pot of gold, yeah
See how they, see how they, ooh see how they run
See how they run, run, run
