Alexz Johnson
Running With The Devil (2008 Version)
Looking up straight, find a hand on his shoulder
Trying to find his way through the city, crawling through an alley
On the floor by your door needing help with a feeling that he's had before

Never calling anyone, feeling unloved
Saying goodbye, life is better when you're high
Never mind when you're there, cause they never play fair
They never play fair

Maybe you will
Maybe you won't
Turn the clock around now
You think it's always better but it won't
Take you away
Up out of here
Standing on the tracks for someone to appear

Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil instead
X2

Memories hurt even more when you're burnt
Like you're walking on a tightrope having no hope
Looking down for a face or a smell
When you found it there you fell
Writing deep letters to yourself
Maybe this one will help
Throw it all away and hurt yourself
When you're done see what it was all about
See the hurt didn't help

Your heart's letting you down
Feeling unfound
Like you're running in a race, no end in sight
Every day has a night
Every night has another fight

Steal me, put me in your pocket
I'll be there
Take me out when you can't shout
Can't find a reason why you're here
Sent to a place where the brave win the race

Maybe you will
Maybe you won't
Turn the clock around now
You think it's always better but it won't
Take you away
Up out of here
Standing on the tracks
For someone to appear
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil
Running with the devil instead

You’ll find your way
You want to run
You want to run
Give it all away
Give it all away
You give it all away

Maybe you will
Maybe you won't
Turn the clock around now
You think it's always better but it won't
Take you away
Up out of here
Standing on the tracks
For someone to appear

Chorus X4
It’s okay
Never really wanna stay where you stay
When you really wanna run run away
When you really wanna run

It’s okay
You don’t really need to stay where you stay
When you really wanna run run away
