Running with the Devil (2020 Version)
Looking up straight, find a hand on his shoulder
Trying to find his way through the city
Crawling through an alley in 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
[Pre-Chorus]
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]
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
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
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
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
And you run, you run
You run, you run
You run, run away
Hey!
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
And you run, you run
You run, you run
You run, run away
And you run, you run
You run, you run
You run, run away
Hey!
