letra de a small white flag - mark lenover

they’ve built a life
and maybe that’s enough
i’m so far behind
i will never catch up
they’ve got their children
and their weekends off
but i don’t want children
and i don’t have a job
they might think i’m jealous
they’re only half wrong
they’ve got careers
and i’ve only got songs
they’ve got responsibilities and bills
while i live on charity, junk food and pills
i’ve gotta run, gotta run, gotta run, gotta run
some other way

i dive under the water’s
untroubled surface
through the murky pollution
to discover my purpose
i’m alone when i surface
are they so far ahead?
or are they just better
at holding their breath?
considering romance
my heart turns to stone
i really just want to be
left on my own
if n0body wants me
i really don’t care
i’ve got what i need
and i don’t want to share
i’ve gotta run, gotta run, gotta run, gotta run
some other way
i suppose it all boils down to one simple question:
will i be the rule, or the lonesome exception?
am i prepared to give up all that i’ve got
for a place out amongst you, or my own private spot
in a quiet asylum where n0body speaks
of treatment as the building settles and creaks
behind razor-wire fencing, reaching all around
not to keep our kind in, but to keep the rest out
i’ve gotta run…
