Instinct Lyrics - Instinct - Iggy Pop

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

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

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 second rate 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 

Photos 

Marks on walls, the 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 running, running, running, running
