You walk the street
With rust beneath your feet
It leaves a trace
You shed it like a snake

You always run away, away, away
You never stop and stay, and stay, and stay
You always run away, you try to take
The pain away, away, away

A pile of gold
It shines behind your door
You clutch and hold
The memories that you sold

You always run away, away, away
You never stop and stay, and stay, and stay
You always run away, you try to take
The pain away, away, away, away

Some day soon
Karma's gonna find you
Wherever you run to
It's one step behind you
You don't have to hold that weight
Every levee's got to break
Someday soon, someday soon

What have I done
What ghost have I become
The Moon comes up
And shines the same on everyone

You always run away, away, away
You never stop and stay, and stay, and stay
You always run away, you try to take
The pain away, away, away

Some day soon
Karma's gonna find you
Wherever you run to
It's one step behind you
You don't have to hold that weight
Every levee's got to break
Someday soon, someday soon

Some day soon
Karma's gonna find you
Wherever you run to

You always run away, away, away
You never stop and stay, and stay, and stay
You always run away, you try to take
The pain away, away, away

Some day soon
Karma's gonna find you
Wherever you run to
It's one step behind you
You don't have to hold that weight
Every levee's got to break
Someday soon, someday soon
