Lyrics
we got the soul
we got the honey
to stay alive we keep on running
house is on fire
we’re petrol-stained
we stay on the move
ahead of the flames
we are the new accelerators
faster we go before they make us
maybe we did maybe we don’t
let’s see your face as you throw the stone
i am a fugitive on the run
i carry the weight of what i’ve done
those born of sweat through eyes of love
bring more light than 5000 hurts
it’s not where you’re from but where you go
and what you believe is more than you know
open your head open your head
hold me close as we jump off the edge
i am a fugitive on the run
i carry the weight of what i’ve done
so don’t carry the weight
don’t carry the weight
you can’t change the world
but you can change what’s to come
i am a fugitive on the run
so don’t carry the weight
don’t carry the weight

Band Thoughts:
Gavin: “I think in many ways we all have a sense of that escapism that we’re all on the run somehow. I like the idea of it being like a kind of Bonnie and Clyde sense to it. There’s fugitives on the run, and just keeping away from whatever it is. Society, whatever you feel holds you back in life.”
“Bonnie and Clyde story for the 21st century,” -Gavin
Staff Thoughts:
“Thats a crappy explanation for a song. Just say it sounded cool, we won’t hate you. And I’m sure that it’s a coincidence that No Doubt had a song called Detective on thier latest album.”- Brandyn
“It rocks, it’s not phenominal, but it rocks.”- Laura
