A renegade rides a runaway train
To liberate, tear those bonds asunder
A fugitive running from a chain gang
Comfort me, grant me absolution

Running all my life
Running all my days
Running through the night
It seems like forever
Take me now, I'm so tired
Take me now, this time forever

(Chorus)
Rescue me
I'm gonna run like a refugee
Recue me
I believe you can rescue me

Destitute, looking for protection
I want love, not physical asylum
A vagabond running from destruction
Cover me while I seek defection

Running all my life
Running all my days
Running through the night
It seems like forever
Take me now, I'm so tired
Take me now, this time forever

(Chorus)
