Well I had a dream that I received a prophecy 
Predictions and vision to be written by me 
But I didn't want them to come true, I was afraid 
So I decided to run away 
But what could I run to, where could I go? 
If I showed my face, all the angry prophets would know 
I rand into the wilderness, ran into the cold 
I screamed why, oh why did I ever run away? 

Don't disturb those fields of coal 
For they may turn to gold 
And if they break you, don't let them run away 
With your soul 

Knights in white lighting shot out of the remote 
They said stand and be reckoned, I begged please, let me go 
They said uh-uh, no way, you've gotta come true 
We can't let you run away 

But I was taught by my mother not to do as I was bid 
I always tried to do good but I was just a bad kid 
They kicked me out of their schools, they didn't like what I did 
And since then I've always been a little runaway 

Don't disturb those fields of coal 
For they may turn to gold 
And if they break you, don't let them run away 
With your soul 

I had a dream that I was an alien 
And in a ship of white diamond I was encircling the sun 
But the ship lost control, I got too close, and I couldn't turn away 
The force of its gravity sucked me right in 
But it didn't burn solid like the other suns did 
Inside was a stage and they wanted me to play 
I screamed why, oh why? Would you just let me run away? 

Don't disturb those fields of coal 
For they may turn to gold 
And if they break you, don't let them run away 
With your soul
