The Pinkertons - Punks On The Run lyrics

Artist: The Pinkertons

album: Poor Pretty Poet / Pretty Poor Poet


I've got this picture, stuck in my brain
Of you beneath a streetlight, waiting for a train
Shoes in your hands and a dress that is torn
Some cool summer night in the town we were born
Wake up with a dream of you lying on the floor
The sun shines through the room, my flowers are in bloom
Oh, we swore someday
We would burn down this town
We would never look back
We were punks on the run
The city is kind if you prefer to be alone
I'm a brick in my building, another unknown
Oh midnight in June under great northern skies
I never learned how to fall asleep with the sun in my eyes
Oh, the night below the streetlights
We knew what was at stake
A crooked path through the woods, until we found our mistake
If I was a fire, you were a spark
Now the city is silent
And the windows are dark
You said "All we have here
Is passion and hope
It's a broken mean world, babe
Hanging by the ropes."
We were raindrops on a windshield,
Reflecting in the light
Racing down the freeway,
Putting up a fight
And we swore someday
We would burn down this town
We would never look back
We were punks on the run
And we swore someday
We would burn down this town
We would never look back
We were punks on the run
