Poor House Songtext
von Sandollar

It′s getting down to the wire, oh
Hold me down now, seal my fate
I feel I'm ′bout to expire, oh
Check my expiration date

But before I go down under the pavement
There's one last thing I'd like to save
It′s all I know now, all that is sacred
Are memories that seem to fade

′Cause I could take it to the pour house
Underneath the shade
Or I could fill it up and pour out
And keep running away
'Cause I could take it to the pour house
Underneath the shade
Or I could fill it up and pour out
And keep running away


So can you feel this lonely sound of
A moth attracted to a flame?
The water′s overflowing down, so
Trap the sunshine and the rain

But before we know now all will be wasted
So I'll light one up and lead the way
As all we know has been replaced with
A photograph so sunny and lame

′Cause I could take it to the pour house
Underneath the shade
Or I could fill it up and pour out
And keep running away
'Cause I could take it to the pour house
Underneath the shade
Or I could fill it up and pour out
And keep running away

Running away, running away, running away, running away
Running away, running away, running away, running away
Running away, running away, running away
