Pendragon - Midnight Running lyrics

Midnight running Are we homeward bound? Pandora's box is lying open on the ground Got needles in your backbone Got those needles in your head The spotlights flashing frozen in your tracks And your just playing dead You know you know you gotta go Make a break for the border Make the break of a life Take your sons and daughters Keep them safe right under your wing Throw your past behind you And put history to the knife Too fast too bitter too late To change your mind again Too fast too bitter too late It's driving you insane Wherever I go I'll take you there Whatever you say can't help me now I've swallowed my pride Let go the fear Followed the tears I'm so excited something new is about to happen Midnight running Have we lost our ground? Freedom's in the hands of those who pickup on every sound For he that stands alone and by his actions judged Will carry the burden of a thousand souls Lying helpless caged and drugged You know you know you gotta go The seeds are all now sown It was written down in stone Now the time has come to break away the chains And midnight run alone tonight And it's driving you insane Wherever I go I'll take you there Whatever you say can't help me now I've swallowed my pride Let go the fear Followed the tears I'm so excited something new is about to happen [repeat] Can we cross the border? Can we cross the water? Will we keep our sons and daughters? And finally see the bright light of freedom The bright light of freedom The rare light of freedom The torchlight shines on the path ahead And the weak walk in the footsteps we tread To feel the warm light of freedom [chorus]
