lyrics

I don’t wanna run,
the bullet’s in the gun,
Take a shot, take your aim,
you’ll never shoot me down.
I’m a cold dog barking, and you don’t want it, you don’t need it now.
I didn’t want to change
but nothing stays the same
I drew a line in the sand
and then the wave came
I’m the sun in your eyes, and you don’t want it, you don’t need it now.

The day don’t know the night is cold.
The dark don’t know the day is warm.
And You’ve been robbed so blind, you
won’t believe your eyes, but.
Truth don’t tell no lies, dear.
And you won’t find no truth, here.

I don’t want to say
what one of us should say
I’m a maze, I’m a road, that’ll never get you home
I’m a stone in the way, and you don’t want it, you don’t need it now.
You don’t wanna go
I never said to stay
I’m the wind on your back, the wind in your face
I’m a stray cat staying, and you don’t want it, you don’t need it now.
