"Runners Of The Sun" lyrics
"Runners Of The Sun"
How could I have seen them
Their faces and distant lives
Shells in the ocean

To drown in the ocean's rise
Or burn in a heat wave
This is why

To slowly break
Under the lashes
This is how
I learned a lie
That power breeds
Regeneration

Frightened Rabbit - "Get Out" I'm in the arch of the church
Between her thumb and her forefinger
I'm a worshipper
A zealot king, cursed, a devotee
Of the heady golden dance she does
She's an uncut drug
I found a vein and a pulse...
Other Lives - "Hey Hey I" Too many exist out on the open water
This emotion, this as it gets so tight
Oh, you try all this, but you find it's all for nothin'
You said, hey, man, somethin' don't sit right
They only come out...
