Album: The Family Jewels
I was dreaming something dark,
Hiding body parts
A broken dog, a broken leg,
I left it cold, I left it dead
Oh I'm a guilty one,
And know what I have done
Yeah, I'm a troubled one,
And I won't be forgiven
Guilty on the run,
And I know what I have done
Guilty on the run,
And I'm never forgiven
I was just a kid,
That you could not forgive,
Because it's harder
I was just a kid,
And all I really wanted,
Was my father
I killed a dog so smart and rare
Touched his techni-coloured hair
I left it bruised and black and lame
I left it running full of shame
Oh I'm a guilty one,
And know what I have done
Yeah, I'm a troubled one,
And I won't be forgiven
Guilty on the run,
And I know what I have done
Guilty on the run,
And I'm never forgiven
I was just a kid,
That you could not forgive,
Because it's harder
I was just a kid,
And all I really wanted,
Was my father
Spent years singing to forget, (to forget).
Spent years singing, "no regret"
Then suddenly it all becomes clear,
I've been sorry all these years
I was just a kid,
That you could not forgive,
Because it's harder
I was just a kid,
And all I really wanted,
Was my father
Guilty on the run,
And I know what I have done
Guilty on the run,
And I'm never forgiven
Guilty on the run,
And I know what I have done
Guilty on the run,
And I'm never forgiven
