lyrics

The chase is on and I'm in demand
I know this place like the back of my hand
I drop the bomb then I disappear
Made it plain I'm not needed here

But that's not the way I play
That's not what I planned for

Venture far into the unknown
Digging deep like a dog for a bone
In this life you can't always win
But don't go down without taking a swing

Away
Keep running away

Under the sun I head for home
Under the sun I stand alone
In the light I lose my head
Memories of simple days
Under the sun I fade away
Now's the time to face my fate

There's no way out - just do what you're told
Hope is gone, stuck in a hole
They'll make you beg, beg for your life
You gotta run, run through the night

But that's not the way I play
Not what I'm looking for

It grinds you down year after year
The stars align and all is clear
And if I'm found I won't be judged
With this rage running through my blood

Away
Keep running away

Under the sun I head for home
Under the sun I stand alone
In the light I lose my head
Memories of simple days
Under the sun I fade away
Now's the time to face my fate

Under the sun I head for shore
Under the sun my eyes explore
Consequences cross my mind
Memories of simple days
Under the sun I fade away
Now's the time to face my fate
