The Fugitive Lyrics
On a cold October morning
As frost lay on the ground
Waiting to make my move
I make no sound
Waiting for the mist to cover all around
I carefully picked my time
then took the wall
I'm sick and tired of running
The hunger and the pain
A stop to look about then off again
Being at the wrong place
And the wrong time
Suspected of a hit that was my crime
I am a fugitive being hunted down
like game
I am a fugitive but I've got to clear
my name
Always looking 'round me
Forever looking back
I'll always be a target for attack
Ever moving onwards
Always on the run
Waiting for the sight of a loaded gun
I am a fugitive being hunted down
like game
I am a fugitive but I've got to clear
my name
Even if I find them
And get to clear my name
I know that things can never
be the same
But if I ever prove
My innocence some day
I've got to get them all to make them pay
I am a fugitive being hunted down
like game
I am a fugitive but I've got to clear
my name
As frost lay on the ground
Waiting to make my move
I make no sound
I carefully picked my time
then took the wall
The hunger and the pain
A stop to look about then off again
And the wrong time
Suspected of a hit that was my crime
like game
I am a fugitive but I've got to clear
my name
Forever looking back
I'll always be a target for attack
Always on the run
Waiting for the sight of a loaded gun
like game
I am a fugitive but I've got to clear
my name
And get to clear my name
I know that things can never
be the same
My innocence some day
I've got to get them all to make them pay
like game
I am a fugitive but I've got to clear
my name

A very underrated song!!! Just today on the way home after buying the album i was reading the lyrics from the booklet and i knew it was gonna be an awesome song!!!
Great song, possably about the movie with the same name. The story fits at least.
I love it! Anyway the song (the Fear of the Dark-album anyway) was released in 1992, and the movie in 1993...
the movie is based on a TV series that ran during the 60's... and thee song is basically based on that series, i guess
