Song lyrics

And so she woke up

Woke up from where she was lyin' still

Said I gotta do something

About where we're going

Step on a steam train

Step out of the driving rain, maybe

Run from the darkness in the night

Singing ah, ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day


Sweet the sin

Bitter the taste in my mouth

I see seven towers

But I only see one way out

You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking

Scream without raising your voice

You know I took the poison from the poison stream

Then I floated out of here, singing

Ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day


She runs through the streets

With her eyes painted red

Under a black belly of cloud in the rain

In through a doorway

She brings me white golden pearls

Stolen from the sea

She is ragin', she is raging

And the storm blows up in her eyes

She will suffer the needle chill

She's running to stand still
