Texty: Sandra. Silent Running.

Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
But now their fighting will be close at hand

Don't believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I'm with the high command

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

There's a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency

Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect you from up here

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel

Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
(Oh, can you hear me running?)

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
(Can you hear me?)
(Hear me calling, calling)
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

(Oh can you hear, can you hear me calling?)
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
(Can you hear me?)
(Oh, can you hear me running?)
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
