How fast you gonna run?
|
Away from this one
|
Anywhere but here
|
You wanna disappear
|
To the next daylight
|
Where everythings right
|
It's always somewhere else
|
You're gonna fix yourself
|
Once shame and guilt
|
Have made their mark
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You can't run away from the nagging dark
|
Toy carry it everywhere in your heart
|
It finishes everything that you start
|
You can't run away from the nagging dark
|
|
How much it gonna cost?
|
When everything's lost
|
What a price you'd pay
|
Just to feel some way
|
'Cause you're heart is stone
|
Ground down to the bone
|
All your flesh and blood
|
Just ashes and mud
|
Feels like
|
Your soul's been blown apart
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You can't run away from the nagging dark
|
Toy carry it everywhere in your heart
|
It finishes everything that you start
|
You can't run away from the nagging dark
|
|
How far can you see?
|
Will you even be free?
|
Through the blackest night
|
You still hold on tight
|
|
Hope is your finest work
|
It's your finest work
|
Hope is your finest work of art
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You can't run away from the nagging dark
|
Toy carry it everywhere in your heart
|
It finishes everything that you start
|
You can't run away from the nagging dark
|
