So she woke up,
woke up from where she was lying still.
Said I got to do something
about where we're going.
Slip on the steam train,
step out of the driving rain maybe,
run from the darkness in the night
singing la da da da da dee day
ha la dee day a la da day ay.
Sweet the sin,
bitter the taste in my mouth.
I see seven towers,
but I only see one way out.
You gotta cry without weeping,
talk without speaking,
scream without raising your voice.
You know I took the poison
from the poison stream.
Then I floated out of here singing...
[chorus]
She runs through the streets,
her eyes painted red,
under a black belly of cloud in the rain.
In through a doorway she brings me
white golden pearls stolen from the sea.
She's raging, she's raging and the storm blows up in her eyes.
She will suffer the needle chain.
She's running to stand still.
