Silent Running Songtext

von Mike & The Mechanics

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "Silent Running" von "Mike & The Mechanics" handelt von einer dystopischen Zukunft, in der Krieg und Gewalt...

Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don't believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me I'm with the high command

Can you hear me can you hear me running
Can you hear me running can you hear me calling you

Theres a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here

Can you hear me can you hear me running
Can you hear me running can you hear me calling you

Sweet allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still

Can you hear me can you hear me running
Can you hear me running can you hear me calling you
