Instinct

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 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 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
