Leave Here Running

Got crocked in the hotel bar
Feeling like I lost my star
A man can fall so far
Crocked in the hotel bar

Earlier I felt so good
Like I finally understood
Now I’m drowning in a mood—like I’ve been
Stranded on the moon

I thought I had come
To a pause in the war
But here I am again I’m feeling
Lost in the storm—I’ve got to
Leave here running but I
Don’t know where to go

I gotta get out of this place
I’m staring at the devil’s face!
He’s laughing at my disgrace—the whole human
Race has the devil’s face!

Why must I wander?
What am I stumbling under?
I think I’m into something that could make a fellow
Come undone—I hope I’m wrong!

Quivering meat
Out in the street
There’s a hunger gnawing all
The people I see—I’ve got to
Leave here running ‘cause
A man has got to be

(All my life I’ve been

Lost and wondering
I’ll my life I’ve been
Running somewhere
But I am always here)

A branch of lightning gleams

Feels like it’s reaching me
Doesn’t need to be believed
A branch of lightning gleams

A flash in the night

A flash in my mind
I’m looking for a light while I’m
Groping blind—I’ve got to
Leave here running but I
Don’t know what I’ll find

Might lose my mind!
