Talkers Are Not Doers
Stereotypical Working Class Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Many things will come
No, don't let them go away
And I don't think this will
Last all along the way
You should make up your mind
Before you fade away
Before you fade away
When your body called
For the lust to come again
Back when your soul felt safe
When your body called
For the lust to come again
Questions and fears
Mess all inside your head
Are made to slip away, away
I don't think this will
Await for you to sway
Now take the chance for real
Before you fade away
Before you fade away
Back when your soul felt safe
When your body called
For the lust to come again
Back when your soul felt safe
When your body called
For the lust to come again
Now that you give me the reason
To chase you away
Now that you give me the reason
To chase you away
Now that you give me the reason
Run
You should run
Run
You should run
Run
You should run
