the sky was crying a dark language that none of us can speak soak me to the bone drown me upon my throne and swept me off my feet i was hoping that a miracle would save me because i could feel the devil closing in so i went down to the river tried to wash away my sins but there were no gods in the water just reflections of my face the visions of my demons cause my soul to slip away no i don t want to hurt no more i chase the night but it won t set me free when darkness falls and thunder closes in i m running to the wild i m running to the wild what once glittered gold is now coated in rust the sign of an empire in the dust the streets on fire and the people watch it burn and i still don t know which way to turn i was hoping that a miracle would save me because i could feel the devil closing in so i went down to the river tried to wash away my sins but there were no gods in the water just reflections of my face the visions of my demons cause my soul to slip away no i don t want to hurt no more i chase the night but it won t set me free when darkness falls and thunder closes in i m running to the wild i m running to the wild i m running to the wild i m running to the wild
