"Dirty Words / Running (DEMO)"

[Dirty Words]

Hippie is a dirty word
Feminist's a dirty word
Communist's a dirty word
Marijuana is a dirty word

Settled is a good word
Married is a good word
Play the game, climb the ladder
Conservative is a very good word

Hand-me-downs and muddy shoes
Push me in and tell me what to do
I was always too nervous
I was always too angry

Jackhammer your advice
That's why children never call home anymore

[Running]

I will stand, I will walk away
I will walk, I will walk
I will run, I will run
I will run, I will run
I will run, I will run
I am running, running, running
Down the road, down the road to get to me

Running in her belly
Running on my knees
Running from the trailer
Down the road so they tied me to a tree

Running, running the natural me
Running down the road, down the road to get to me

I ran away from college
I ran away from all my men
I don't know why I run
I just run, I just run

Myself is always here
Like a bright yellow sun
Everything else passes
Like forgotten horses
