Running to Stand Still (live) cover

Running to Stand Still (live).

(lyrics)
And so she woke up
Woke up from where she was
Lying still
Said I gotta do something
About where we’re going

Step on a steam train
Step out of the driving rain, maybe
Run from the darkness in the night
Singing ha, ah la la la de day
Ah da da da de day
Ah la la de day

Sweet the sin
the Better the taste in my mouth
I see seven towers
But I only see one way out

You got to cry without weeping
Talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice

You know I took the poison
From the poison stream
Then I floated out of here
Laughing ha la la la de day
Ha la la la de day
Ha la la de day

She runs through the streets
With eyes painted red
Under a black belly of cloud in the rain
In through a doorway she brings me
White gold and pearls stolen from the sea
She is raging
She is raging
And the storm blows up in her eyes
She will

Suffer the needle chill
She’s running to stand
Still

    • Hey Great to see you Here Mia! I have been physically ill with a virus, which now has run it’s course. I want to draw your attention that I have upgraded my Soundcloud. I put up around 125 original songs. There are probably 50 really old ones that are covers. I am thinking what I will do for all the cover tunes I do, is make a “album art” that says it is a cover, and also state the legal ground on which I can post it..The way out is to say that the songs are for Scholarship and Research Purposes…maybe even site the page in the law books there..so as I will not get fucked with by record companies..

      • Thank you, sad to read that you have been under the weather, hoping you’re all better. I like that idea of “album art”, your artwork is incredible. Sounds like you have been amazingly busy. I’m looking forward to checking out your SoundCloud, thanks for letting me know. I hope you have a terrific Sunday. Please take good care of yourself. ~ Mia

      • I have my strength back! Came back in a huge torrent of power!!! I really need to not neglect the visual art. I just keep striving to sound good. Will do on the taking care of myself bit. Have a good upcoming week!
