I sleep to dream in this old house
Only wake for the night
The city's queen and she holds me
Till the first sight of daylight
Tryin’ to get through the breakdown
Find a way out of this town
Or in a lake of fire we'll surely drown
That's alright if you’re with me
And that's why I'll run
From the shine of the sun
That's stealing dark from the night sky
My heart is yours for the takin'
If you want to take it
I know you're scared you might break it
Girl it's been breakin' all my life
I’ve been running on empty
Like the ones here before me
And all this hurt our hearts are hauling
Hurts a littlе less each day
And that’s why we'll run
From thе shine of the sun
That’s stealing dark from the night sky
And I held you close to me
Showed you where my heart would be
So when it came time again for me to leave
You'd be carryin' a part of me
Let's try to get through the breakdown
Find a way out of this town
Or in a lake of fire we’ll surely drown
But that's alright if you're with me
And that's why we'll run
From the shine of the sun
Stealin' dark from the night sky
For our lives we'll run
From the shine of the sun
Stealin' dark from the night sky
