almost lost my hand in the machine
already lost my mind and it seems
im never gonna leave the floor
ive never been so scared before
there's no real escape from here
they're playin all my fears of
unemployment, poverty, so deep in the pit that i cant see
i'm runnin away from you
out of the factory, into the fire
i'm runnin away from you
out of the factory, into the fire
i'm runnin so fast you'll never catch me
takin the best years of my life too
im runnin away from you
catch the bus back on state street
got no money, no way to eat
graveyard shift and now im rockin
production line ain't never stoppin
grinder took a young mans arm
jump outa the belts and hit the alarm
fired him for workers misconduct
cause his blood is in the product
i'm runnin away from you
out of the factory, into the fire
i'm runnin away from you
out of the factory, into the fire
i'm runnin so fast you'll never catch me
takin the best years of my life too
i'm runnin away from you
company called my number and i said, paul's not around cause he's dead
i'm dead to your careless ways, sleepless nights and wasted days, now i got my young life back, got less money but it just goes like that
when you're young no education they'll throw ya on the line no hesitation
i'm runnin away from you
out of the factory, into the fire
i'm runnin so fast you'll never catch me
takin the best years of my life too
i'm runnin away from you
i'm runnin away from you
out of the factory, into the fire
i'm runnin so fast you'll never catch me
takin the best years of my life too
i'm runnin away from you |
