"Billy Balfour" lyrics

"Billy Balfour"

Alas, alack and all that jazz
But nothing comes for free
Love is not a democracy...
And pay attention at the back
You'll need that energy
Wading through this hypocrisy

And you, always with you
There has to be souls to save and foes to slay
And always with you
Often so cruel
There has to be souls to save and foes to slay
But they're always miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away...

I hope you find what you've been running from
I honestly do
There must be someone who could do with you
To tighten a screw
But if they're standing right in front of you
And blocking the view
You'll never find what you've been running from
Before it finds you...

You, always with you
There has to be souls to save and foes to slay
But they're always miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away...

I hope you find what you've been running from
I honestly do
There must be someone who could do with you
To tighten a screw
But if they're standing right in front of you
And blocking the view
You'll never find what you've been running from
Before it finds you...

I hope you find what you've been running from
I honestly do
There must be someone who could do with you
To tighten a screw
But if they're standing right in front of you
And blocking the view
You'll never find what you've been running from
Before it finds you...
