Shoot and Run Lyrics

the flame dims to a spark
we're whispering in the dark
time is still while the shadows play
don't you know you're late
the show will have to wait
and i know you will never be the same

you stare at the door and clock
when fate is sure to knock
you swear you won't ever play that game
well stand close by your gun
it's time to shoot and run
and i know you will never be the same

you saw yourself within your mind
you're floating falling out of time
you bend and twist and break and bind
and now what are you gonna do

we'll hang on until the end
and then we'll all pretend
that we never gave a damn anyway
don't you know youre wrong
i guess the odds are long
and i know you will never be the same

you saw yourself within your mind
you're floating falling out of time
you bend and twist and break and bind
and now what are you gonna do

well come on we'll see you soon
the river the fading moon
will show your smile
as the wind will shout your name
where is that you go
you're closer than you know
and i know you will never be the same
