Lyrics We All Run - Magnum

I dreamt I saw the cities burning
At the gates I saw the angels cry
Now there'll be no turning
And still I wonder why

I dreamt I felt the hand of reason
Coming slowly down, it passed me by
It's just the killing season
It's a foolish lie

We all run - it's a pity for everyone
It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done
We all run - so get ready, the time has come
We all run - it's all over, the game is won

And I dreamt I took a thousand footsteps
To a sea as black and filled with tears
Now there'll be no goodness
For a thousand years

I dreamt I crossed a raging river
That was pure and clear and washed away
All my troubles wither
Into another day

We all run - it's a pity for everyone
It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done
We all run - so get ready, the time has come
We all run - it's all over, the game is won

The cost is too much
In nothing we trust
Everything we touch
Turns into dust

We all run - it's a pity for everyone
It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done
We all run - so get ready, the time has come
We all run - it's all over, the game is won

We all run - it's a pity for everyone
It's all gone - and there's nothing that can be done
We all run - so get ready, the time has come
We all run - it's all over, the game is won
