Running with the Devil lyrics

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 the 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... oh.

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.

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 burn,

like you're walking on a tightrope having no hope,

looking down for a face or a smile, 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 you'll 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 and 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.

Send you to a place where the brave ones win*.

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.

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... ha!

And you run!

You run!

You run!

You run!

And you run!

You run!

You run!

You run!

Hey!

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.

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.

And you run!

You run!

You run!

You run!

And you run!

You run!

You run!

You run!
