lyrics

Verse 1:
Did you hear the story of the boy
Who dreamt of bright and starry things
Gold-paved streets that gild the hills
Scarlet cloak and rainbow shield
Through the piper’s smoke he hitched a ride
On the coat-tails of the night
To a stormy land chasing a rhyme
He went against the tide
He’s gotta run
Baby run

Chorus*:
He’s gotta get out
Out of this city of darkness
This wilderness
It ain’t no paradise
He’s gotta run back home
Back to his momma’s arms
Oh does she know
He’s living a lie

Verse 2:
Under the quilt of violet sky
He found his rest in dreamless sleep
Shadows as his fathers who took him
Deep into the abyss of their keep
Thought at last he was a prince
Invincibility
Never knew he was a jewel in the rings
On the fingers of the kings
He’s gotta run
Baby run

(Chorus*)

Verse 3:
The prince, one day when the wind had died
And the sun had burned his eyes
The kings they left
And he fell and begged
Till he ran out of tears to shed
Thought the others would be kind
But they all seemed to decline
Wish he could still be alive
Hoping for a sign
Hoping for a sign

(Chorus*)

Bridge:
Nineteen never gonna see twenty-one
Waiting in agony between
Turn a leaf but boy it is already done
They’re never gonna set you free
Pray to the preacher who’ll bless your heart
Humanity’s a parody

Last Chorus:
He’s gotta get out
Of this darkness
This wilderness
It ain’t no paradise
He’s gotta run back home
Back to his momma’s arms
Oh does she know
He’s living a lie

Get out,
Out of this wilderness
It ain’t no paradise
Boy, you’ve gotta run back home
Oh does she know
You’re all alone
