Running To Stand Still Lyrics - Elbow

And so she woke up 

Woke up from where 

She was lying 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 de day.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 de day. 

She roams through the streets 

With her eyes painted red 

Under 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 ragin' 

And the storm blows up 

In her eyes. 

She will suffer the needle chill 

She's running to stand still
