Standing on the borderline

Between joy and reason

Tending carefully my fire

Waiting for my season

I know who these people are

I know what they stand for

Corruption's built into this plan

Nothing's under the other hand



Tricks and trials await the child



Instinct keeps me running

Running like a deer

Instinct keeps me running

Running through the grinning shadows



I have seen the sludgy beach

And the poisoned river

I have met the lordly rich

They're just getting stiffer

This whole place is like a maze

Or like some medusa

Let me out I can't accept

A certain read life story



Tricks and trials await the child



Instinct keeps me running

Running like a deer

Instinct keeps me running

Running where the sorrow bless me

Instinct keeps me running

Running like a moose

Instinct keeps me running

Running to keep one chance open



Marks on wallsthe common outlet

Tell the truth and always will

Marks on wall destroy the thought

Of perfect sunny civilization



Tricks and trials await the child



Instinct keeps me running

Running like a deer

Instinct keeps me running

Running through the grinning shadows

Instinct keeps me running

Running like a bear

Instinct keeps me running

Running to keep one chance open

Instinct keeps me running

Running cause I don't believe it

Instinct keeps me running

Running through the bare emotion

Instinct keeps me running

Instinct keeps me running

Running

I'm runningrunningrunningrunning
