Bang The Drum Slowly Lyrics - Singles - Bane

(play the fife lowly) 

i just cannot stop 

asking why, always why 

running and running 

wandering and wondering 

no matter how many years fly by 

screaming "who, what and when" 

like some crazed eight year old 

who needs to know everything 

in a world so filled with nothing 

running and running 

towards one ounce of proof 

things that will not crumble at the slightest touch 

you tell me who the hell i抦 gonna trust 

i can抰 stand looking at grown-ups 

never mind trust them 

loud and proud laughing at things that are not funny 

chewing happily on what is left 

of this cold, gray, flawed world 

i just gotta keep right on running 

away from it all 

towards tears born from lesson 

towards dreams instead of dollars 

half my age and stupidly brave 

慶uz anything is better than lying in some comfortable deathbed 

staring into the abyss 

as afraid of living as i am of not living 

though one time i awoke 

and could still feel the cold steel of a sword 

that had been thrust into me
