No More Runnin |

LYRICS | Merriweather Version

No more runnin', says my mind
All this movement has just proved your kisses hard to find
Older harmony that I see
Friends I once had turn their thoughts away from me
No more runnin', I’ve got to breathe
On back porches with the torch of a firefly lit tree
It's what I hope for
It's what I hope for
No more runnin'
No more runnin'
I locked my bones and trapped my feet
I told them I found ‘em a place to be
And stick like candy in your teeth
When you lose your faith in me
No more runnin', says my mind
All this movement has just proved your kisses hard to find
It's what I hope for
It's what I hope for
No more runnin'
No more runnin'
No more runnin'
No more runnin'

LYRICS.
If I represent the one that did this to you
Then can away the part that represents the thing that scarred you
I say, Get up, stand up, get up, stand up, get on it
Yessir, I am no longer who you thought this one would be

We end up around the mountain that I climb to lose you
I said, I said give me the business that business could work through,
I say, Ask me but all my wisdom departed
Tell me but all my wisdom departed
But help please at least answer me this,
Answer me, answer me

What's the business, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

From a distance, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

I'm a victim, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

I'm addicted
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

If you just press your fingers down under my skin (Go on and do it)
Lift up, dig up, lift up, dig up and bleed for me
I say, I'll bleed if you ask me
I'll bleed if you ask me
That's when, that's when, he said no

What's the business, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

From a distance, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

I'm a victim, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

I'm addicted, yeah
Don't take my life away
Don't take my life away

I'm addicted, yeah
From a distance, yeah
I'm a victim, yeah
What's the business, yeah

I'm addicted, yeah

(instrumental)

What's the business, yeah
What's the business, yeah

Edit: I’ve posted above the two groups, Animal Collective and tUnE-yArDs, and Vampire Weekend on the previous page, wanting to note their mention in this Simon Reynolds interview. Thanks to both battleshipkropotkin and gnosticheresy_2 for the heads-up!

this song of his isn't on youtube (yet)...

Wild Bill Donovan
by Stan Ridgway

In a time between two wars
When a slip could get you killed
A man appeared with a master plan
And they called him Wild Bill

He talked you 'round in circles
When he was done, yeah, you knew less
And he started up the company1
From what was left of the O.S.S.2

Chorus:
Wild Bill, Wild Bill
The secrets that he'd hold
Wild Bill, Wild Bill
He slept out in the cold

Now he was there in '45
When the good war had wound down
The enemy had all been caught
But some could not be found

The price of information
Sometimes takes a sacrifice
A secret traded for a life
But someone pays the price

Chorus repeat

The world was on fire for Bill
He had to take control
The enemy was close at hand
The tanks were told to hold

But deep inside Bill's massive head
A master plan did bloom
Buy the information out
By sellin' a brand new tune

Chorus repeat
