They say you're a rebel
Beautiful loser - maybe so
Maybe you'd best be on your way
The score isn't settled
Till someone's up on the whipping post
You're pushing too hard, you're getting too close

They're cool to a stranger
Don't care where you're from or where you go
Long as you'll soon be on your way
The night's full of danger
Out on the edge, it's dark and cold
And nobody cares, and nobody knows

This passion that burns inside you
This love you can't hold back any more
One hope worth living for
Just don't go dying for it too
Run for your life
Boy, can't you see they're right behind you?
Run for your life
Watch out for number one

Run for your life
Try to be gone before they find you
Run for your life
Before your race is all run
They'll have you for dinner
Put you upon the killin' floor
When you've got nothing left to lose

The world loves a winner
Nothing is fair in love and war
There aren't any rules, you use or be used
By whatever burns inside you
This love you can't hold back any more
One hope you're living for
Just don't go dying for it too
