Red On The Highway

Words and Music by Tony Clarkin


Red on the highway, diamonds in the sky
A million stilettos cutting tears from your eye
Peppered with starshell pouring silver rain
Falling like lumber, but you're feeling no pain

You can't run
Can't run
Can't run away
Can't run na na na na na na
Can't run away

Blood in the river, terror spikes your soul
It's louder than thunder way down deep in this hole
There's a light in the mountain, a fireball in the town
Tornado in the making and a shaking in the ground

You can't run
Can't run
Can't run away
Can't run na na na na na na
Can't run away

Trapped in the shadows feeling ragged and torn
Radio message bringing no help at all
There's a light in the mountain, a fireball in the town
Tornado in the making and a shaking in the ground

You can't run
Can't run
Can't run away
Can't run na na na na na na
Can't run away
