For the River - Nickelback

Stuck in a cage, luck of the draw

Always a way, gotta get out

Lord, I’m gonna find one

Get me a key, pick me a lock

Gotta be free, ready or not

Gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run

Nowhere to hide, 'cause someone’s always gonna find you

Trying to breathe with everybody right behind you

Scattering leaves to try and cover up the footprints

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

I’m running for the river

'Cause the river’s running high

And there ain’t no going back

They’ll never catch me

I’m running for the river

You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried

But there ain’t no going back

They’ll never catch me

Tell 'em that you tried, but you’re never gonna catch me

Let out the hounds, send out the guards

Never be found, better than bars

And damn it, he’s a fast one

Out of the trees into the swamp

Gotta be free, so don’t ever stop

Gotta run, gotta run

Gotta run, gotta run

God damn it, he’s a fast one

Nowhere to hide, 'cause someone’s always gonna find you

Trying to breathe with everybody right behind you

Scattering leaves to try and cover up my footprints

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

I’m running for the river

'Cause the river’s running high

And there ain’t no going back

They’ll never catch me

I’m running for the river

You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried

But there ain’t no going back

They’ll never catch me

Tell 'em that you tried, but you’re never gonna catch me

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

(Gotta run, gotta run)

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

Water ahead 'cause I can hear it in the distance

(Gotta run, gotta run)

I’m running for the river

'Cause the river’s running high

And there ain’t no going back

They’ll never catch me

I’m running for the river

You can ride, you can fly, you can tell 'em that you tried

But there ain’t no going back

They’ll never catch me

They’ll never catch me

Never gonna catch me

Never gonna catch me

They’ll never catch me
