This morning I was a prisoner on the run I knew the fear of being caught as I broke for freedom I ran in another way to all those around I was sure that this fact would lead to my being found
This morning I was a thief with guilt breaking my back I’ve taken nothing from you, call off your attack Some line has been crossed and I’m in a dangerous place With each step I take I’m twisting time and I am twisting space
I wait to be pounced upon but no-one ever jumps I wait to be gunned down but no shots ever fire And all those eyes behind the shadows They are all hate filled and white They’re only monsters in my mind, and tricks inside the light They’re only monsters in my mind, and tricks in the light
This morning I was a liar convinced that he’s dealing in truth Stubborn like a lost man who claims that he’s on a better route All is impossible under this sky of blue But I’m not sure exactly what it is that I should do, what I should do
I wait to be pounced upon but no-one ever jumps I wait to be gunned down but no shots ever fire And all those eyes behind the shadows They are all hate filled and white They’re only monsters in my mind, and tricks inside the light They’re only monsters in my mind, and tricks in the light
