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

Sweet is the sin
Bitter taste in my mouth
I see seven towers
But I only see one way out

You got to cry without weeping
Talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice
You know I took the poison
From the poison stream
And 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 runs through the streets
With eyes painted red
Under the black belly of a cloud in the rain
In through a doorway she brings me
White gold and pearls
Stolen from the sea
She is raging
She is raging
And the storm blows up in her eyes

She will suffer the needle chill
She's running to stand still
