Gil Scott Heron
Running

Because I always feel like running
Not away, because there is no such place
Because, if there was I would have found it by now
Because it's easier to run,
Easier than staying and finding out you're the only one...who didn't run
Because running will be the way your life and mine will be described
As in "the long run"
Or as in having given someone a "run for his money"
Or as in "running out of time"
Because running makes me look like everyone else,
though I hope there will ever be cause for that
Because I will be running in the other direction,
not running for cover
Because if I knew where cover was,
I would stay there and never have to run for it
Not running for my life,
because I have to be running for something of more value
to be running and not in fear
Because the thing I fear cannot be escaped, eluded, avoided,
hidden from, protected from, gotten away from,
Not without showing the fear as I see it now
Because closer, clearer, no sir, nearer
Because of you and because of that nice
That you quietly, quickly be causing
And because you're going to see me run soon
and because you're going to know why I'm running then
You'll know then
Because I'm not going to tell you now


Mirror lyrics:

Because I'm not going to tell you now
You'll know then
and because you're going to know why I'm running then
And because you're going to see me run soon
That you quietly, quickly be causing
Because of you and because of that nice
Because closer, clearer, no sir, nearer
Not without showing the fear as I see it now
hidden from, protected from, gotten away from,
Because the thing I fear cannot be escaped, eluded, avoided,
to be running and not in fear
because I have to be running for something of more value
Not running for my life,
I would stay there and never have to run for it
Because if I knew where cover was,
not running for cover
Because I will be running in the other direction,
though I hope there will ever be cause for that
Because running makes me look like everyone else,
Or as in "running out of time"
Or as in having given someone a "run for his money"
As in "the long run"
Because running will be the way your life and mine will be described
Easier than staying and finding out you're the only one...who didn't run
Because it's easier to run,
Because, if there was I would have found it by now
Not away, because there is no such place
Because I always feel like running

revolution

despues de ti

what have you been doing lately

constantly

the fruit that ate itself

lonesome road

broken

acoustic song

take the key

tell me

nothing ever

all that glitters

shake your groove thing

liberty bell

my coloring book

laat maar los

lonely this christmas

out of time

i want to vanish

sick to my heart
