Lyrics Shakespears Sister

Shakespears Sister

Run Silent

Think about what you're doing baby

Think about faith

Think of the blood that's running

'Round in your veins

You're soft and naked

You're young and strong

My heartbeat races

As you aim the gun

And these prison walls

Can't hold me anymore

Run silent, run deep

You've taken over me

And even when I sleep

Run silent, run deep

When you talk of reconstruction

Do you want it to last

Don't talk of revolution

As a thing of the past

I need a hero are you on my side?

Or just a temple for my sacrifice

And these prison walls

Will have to let me go

Run silent, run deep

You've taken over me

And even when I sleep

Run silent, run deep

From my soul to your fears

From my lips to your ears

One heartbeat

In this world tonight

And in these prison walls

I see an open door

Run silent, run deep

You've taken over me

And even when I sleep

Run silent, run deep
