Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm on my way in a foreign land The crime rate's up to twenty-five percent Dissident people everywhere And I can't find no comfort here [Pre-Chorus] All alone, no one's there to help me No control, there's no one I can trust [Chorus] 'Cause they were running in the dust, running 'Cause they were running in the dust, running [Verse 2] I'm walking through the streets with a stranger's look Their eyes are staring at me as the darkness cooks They ask me for a dollar, a gun behind their back Their faces switch from friendly to attack [Pre-Chorus] All alone, no one's there to help me No control, there's no one I can trust [Chorus] 'Cause they were running in the dust, running 'Cause they were running in the dust, running [Bridge] I miss my country, my friends, my family I will struggle to go home I'm settled for peace now, step out of insanity But my dream has ended in a blast [Verse 3] Standing here alone in this bloodstained land As I realized danger's close at hand A gunshot kills the sound of silence As an angel's life has ended up by violence [Chorus] 'Cause they were running in the dust, running 'Cause they were running in the dust, running 'Cause they were running in the dust Running in the dust The dust
