down by law - requiem lyrics

Loading...

time flies
don’t it seem that way
i heard the old man softly say:
“a thousand lessons i have learned
“my heart still works but the edge is burned
“my son
“you’ll one day find
“your thoughts have left your dreams behind
“that ringing always in your ears
“the noise that comes from quiet fears
“i tried and many times missed
“to love the world just as it is
“the jokes that i took serious
“were funny nonetheless”

like a runaway
but i’m still here
like a runaway

“your father was a lonely man
“although i could not tell
“your father was a lot of things
“i guess i did not know him well
“years pass
“and we must move on
“my dearest boy, my perfect son
“i hope you have my disposition
“try not to think too much
“just things
“like your records say
“try to keep that p.m.a.
“just things
“keep your soul in line
“and it’ll all be fine”
like a runaway
but i’m still here
like a runaway

like the sky
like the sun
a devil you can’t outrun (you can’t outrun)
every serf
and every king
will understand what these words mean (understand)
like the sky
like the sun
a devil you can’t outrun (you can’t outrun)
every serf
every king
will understand what these words mean

stand up
even in this town
when people try to put you down
even if they’re right somehow

like a runaway
but i’m still here
like a runaway
