Cut and run Songtext

Cut and Run

I was living on the south side I was hoping there was more
I was sliding up the hill, fate was banging on my door
I heard a voice in my head it said 'get out of there fast
Theres a hole in the roof in this rain it won't last'
All the money it was spent and I had borrowed as I pleased
Though it looked like the good life it was only a tease

Cut and Run
Drop the load
Cut and run, cut cut and run
Cut and run
Take the road#cut and run, cut cut and run

I could'nt hear for the screams the world was hanging on my back
I was staring at the walls my thoughts were all in black
Now some things they're not worth it
Some things are just not cool
You can take it while its there,, but when its gone who's fooling who
I was sick of all the lies, yes I was sick of all the trash
And they called it the good life, the good life, the good life

Cut and run.............

So now we're living on our own and we've got nothing to pay
We're sitting in the sun as the past fades away
Now I'm looking after her, and she is looking after me
Now we've found the good life, we'll raise our own family
She was the only one to stand by me, the only one

Cut and run...............

So now we're living the good life, living the life, the good life

Cut and run
Drop the load
Cut and run, cut, cut and run
Cut and run
Take the road
Cut and run, cut, cut and run
Cut and run
Jump the night
Cut and run, cut, cut and run
