  • Leaning by the window, watch the dying of the sun
    Balancing the weight of the pill on her tongue
    She'll be getting that
    Look in her eyes
    Cold and lonely
    But I don't know why

    See her near the border
    At the end of the line
    She falls down and I can't do enough
    But I won't ever let her give up
    The angel and the fool

    Round and round, keep running
    Round and round, keep running
    Round and round, keep running
    Running out, keep running out

    She found herself in a well full of men
    Watching her slowly destroy all her plans
    'Cause all along she won't allow herself to even dream about
    The both of us enrolled in now
    And it won't be long

    The early morning sun
    Is coming all around
    Because waking up is hard enough when there's no one else around

    See her near the border
    At the end of the line
    She falls down and I can't do enough
    But I won't ever let her give up
    The angel and the fool

    Round and round, keep running
    Round and round, keep running
    Round and round, keep running
    Running out, keep running out Writer/s: BRIAN BURTON, JAMES MERCER
