Silent Running (On Dangerous Ground) Lyrics By Mike The Mechanics

    take the children and yourself
    and hide out in the cellar
    by now the fighting will be close at hand
    don’t believe the church and state
    and everything they tell you
    believe in me i’m with the high command

    can you hear me can you hear me running
    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you
    can you hear me can you hear me running
    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you

    there’s a gun and ammunition
    just inside the doorway
    use it only in emergency
    better you should pray to god
    the father and the spirit
    will guide you and protect from up here

    can you hear me can you hear me running
    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you
    can you hear me can you hear me running
    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you

    swear allegiance to the flag
    whatever flag they offer
    never hint at what you really feel
    teach the children quietly
    for some day sons and daughters
    will rise up and fight while we stood still

    can you hear me can you hear me running
    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you
    can you hear me can you hear me running
    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you

    can you hear me running can you hear me calling you
    can you hear me hear me calling you
    can you hear me running hear me running babe
    can you hear me running hear me running
    calling you calling you
