"Sabre Tooth" lyrics

"Sabre Tooth"

Abide by the people I've known, yeah
Eye of the needle
I am illegal
I am a faceless man
I've got nowhere else to go
Bow when you see me so low
Yeah
'Cause I am your equal
One of the people
One of the nameless land
I've got nowhere else to go

Pay what you say with truth yeah
I run the eight for you
I pray for hateful news
And bury me cold with that sabre tooth yeah
And I don't wanna run son any more
Yeah I don't wanna run run any more
And I don't wanna run
Stun gun jungle
Land lung
Like sabre tooth, yeah

I cry for the people I lost
Yeah
They look so peaceful
Lying in sequence
Covered in dust and sand
I see them everywhere I go
I lie with an evil I stow
'Cause I got my demons
I'm not European
I'm covered in rust and tracks
They take me every place I go

Pay what you say with truth yeah
I run the eight for you
I pray for hateful news
And bury me cold with that sabre tooth yeah
And I don't wanna run son any more
Yeah I don't wanna run run any more
And I don't wanna run
Stun gun jungle
Land lung
Like sabre tooth, yeah

Speechless
So ceaseless
I am beneath you
But I am righteous
Speechless
So needless
I am your conscience
I mean to guide you

It's a jungle land town tonic
And they're never going to stop at it
And it's 8 stone love for this
Going to climb these gates to this
In a freedom song
I am so done
I am so gone
The fire, the burn
Say gone gone gone gone

Pay what you say with truth yeah
I run the eight for you
I pray for hateful news
And bury me cold with that sabre tooth yeah
And I don't wanna run son any more
Yeah I don't wanna run run any more
And I don't wanna run
Stun gun jungle
Land lung
Like sabre tooth, yeah
