Pete Townshend - Can't Outrun The Truth Lyrics

Pete Townshend Lyrics

"Can't Outrun The Truth"

This lockdown is bringing me down
My Mind's gone underground
Though I crawl from room to room
I can't leave myself behind

I can't outrun the truth
I won't turn to face it either
Should I lay down in this earth
And let the dust just pull me under

I'm running down the line
You're chasing close behind
I'm running out of time

This lockdown is bringing me down.

This lockdown's been bringing me down
Been wired to ev'ry sound
I've spent my nights alone
Can't find no peace of mind

I can't outrun the truth
I really need to face the future
Wanna rise up from the earth
Can't let the dust just pull me under

I gotta leave this room
I gotta shake this doom
Gotta break through all this gloom
This lockdown's been bringing me down
