Lyrics The Levellers

The Levellers

Fight Or Flight

Put a price upon your head

And wish that you were dead

Said you'd crossed the line

Far too many times

Took you for a thief

And beggered your beliefs

Said it was your crimes

That you couldn't read the signs

Helped you on your way

Helped to give you pain

Took away your sight

There was no fight, no flight

Made you pander to their whims

They're on the outside looking in

Didn't help at all

Just stood and watched you fall

Can you help me?

Can you help me?

Cos I need to understand

The truth behind the plan

Can you help me?

Well they pushed you to the brink

And helped to push you in

Didn't reckon on your desire

Your instinct to survive

With the strength that you have found

By standing your own ground

And you ain't gonna run

Despite what ?? done

Can you help me?

Can you help me?

Cos I need to understand

The truth behind the plan

Can you help me?

When you know there comes a time

That you're running for your life

Your back's against the wall

And you're pressed ??? ????

And if you want to stay alive

You know you'll have to fight

Against all the deadly things

With the strength that lies within

Can you help me?

Can you help me?

So I stand amongst the brave

And not just walk away

With the world that is a friend

And a penny not just spent

Walking side by side, grateful you're alive

Can you help me?

Can you help me?

Can you help me?

Can you help me?

Can you help me?
