A renegade
Rides a run away train
To liberate
Tear these bonds assunder
A fugitive
Running from a chain gang
Comfort me
Grant me absolutionRunning all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever
Take me now
I'm so tired
Take me now
This time, foreverRESCUE ME
I'm on the run like a refugee
RESCUE ME
Oh come on rescue meI'm destitute
I'm looking for protection
I want love
And physical asylum
A vagabond
Running from destruction
Cover me
While I seek defectionRunning all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever
Take me now
I'm so tired
Take me now
This time, foreverRESCUE ME
I'm on the run like a refugee
RESCUE ME
I believe you can rescue meRunning all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever
Take me now
I'm so tired
Take me now
This time, foreverRESCUE ME
On the run like a refugee
RESCUE ME
Oh come on rescue me
RESCUE ME
Got to run like a refugee
RESCUE ME
I believe you can rescue me
RESCUE ME
Come on, come on, come on, come on
