You Cant Run Faster Than Bullets by Magnum (Band) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look hard can you see Jacob's ladder
Get ready to make your escape
And what you believe doesn't matter
Get running there's no give and take

[Verse 2]
Earth shakes and the boom's getting louder
No birds in the sky, disappeared
While faces in fear they surround her
Get lost in that dark atmosphere

[Pre-Chorus 1]
There's no time for reason
There's no freedom here

[Chorus]
You hear the cry, sweet mother mild
Can't savе them all, but you can try
Don't sleep tonight, play hide and seek
It's not a game, no-onе can speak
And it's so cold, where's God tonight?
Well there's no food, no appetite
You hear the cry, sweet mother mild
You'd give your life for any child
[Bridge]
Well you can't run faster than bullets
No stopping that noise overhead
Dawn's agony hangs like a puppet
And everything turns bloody red

[Verse 3]
The shadows have turned into ashes
Wild flowers refusing to grow
No tombstone to say he who passes
There's no goodbye there's no hello

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Full moon lights the darkness
Everyone is laid low

[Chorus] (2x)
You hear the cry, sweet mother mild
Can't save them all, but you can try
Don't sleep tonight, play hide and seek
It's not a game, no-one can speak
And it's so cold, where's God tonight?
Well there's no food, no appetite
You hear the cry, sweet mother mild
You'd give your life for any child
