the audition – the running man lyrics

i’m being held captive
somethings got a hold of me
they say until death spilts us up and calls the judge to ask if you belive
that you’ve lost your soul for enternity
that you’ve never been free
but when it’s said and done, we can run and start eternity

but for now i’ve been trapped, oh
too long to take these blows
tell me when you see the smoke
hear my cries and bring me back to home

arrested by your love, girl
cuffed and searched on the floor
badly beaten in love, girl
turn the key and lock the door

arrested by your love, girl
cuffed and searched on the floor
badly beaten in love, girl
turn the key and lock the door

i’ll send an s.o.s through a telegraphic note
express distress
written in code, signed to unknown
cause n-body should know what it’s like to be alone
so take back your soul
a life to uphold a lie to be told cause love’s not set in stone

but for now i’ve been trapped, oh
too long to take these blows
tell me when you see the smoke
hear my cries and bring me back to home

arrested by your love, girl
cuffed and searched on the floor
badly beaten in love, girl
turn the key and lock the door

arrested by your love, girl
cuffed and searched on the floor
badly beaten in love, girl
turn the key and lock the door

come as you are, my darling
bare boned so i can see your soul
i’m beginning to lose control
i need to know i’m starting
to crumble down that nervous wall you’ve had -ssembled for far too long
come as you are, come as you are
i’m beginning to lose control
i need to know, i need to know you’re beginning to lose control

arrested by your love, girl
cuffed and searched on the floor
badly beaten in love, girl
turn the key and lock the door

arrested by your love, girl
cuffed and searched on the floor
badly beaten in love, girl
turn the key and lock the door

come as you are, come as you are
i’m beginning to lose control
i need to know, i need to know you’re beginning to lose control
