The Stalker
By Stephen Russell
Caught a train
Tried escaping from a bad dream
Caught a train
In the middle of the night
Stayed on board
Until I couldn't see the city lights
I made my way
Through a field of childhood memories
Across the lake
Where a lover used to dive
Found the house
That my comrades had set aside
You're always running
Chasing after me
When will I ever be free
You're always running
Chasing after me
Why can't you just let things be
Caught a train
Still escaping from this bad dream
I can't explain
How she tracked me down tonight
Stayed on board
Until the city lights came into sight
I found a bar
Where the deadbeats all assemble
Bought a drink
That would paralyse the night
Then in she came
Was I really going out of my mind
You're always running
Chasing after me
When will I ever be free
You're always running
Chasing after me
Why can't you just let things be
Now let me just live in peace
