Lyrics

The Run

Boy don't speak
Girl don't talk
It's all my fault
All my fault
Fallen angels hunt me
Like an animal on the run
"Blades and arms bring sharks to warmer waters"
He said to me

But I don't belong
Is where I belong
Is what's goin' on with me
And I Love being alone
Playing with a gun
The bloods on the floor
Heads on the door
And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
The girls on the run
She's always
On the run
Yeah

Stain my sheets
Stain my sheets
I'm thirteen now
I'm twenty-three
And you're my blood
And bloods my love
I draw on myself
Draw on myself

Switchin' seats on the Titanic
'Til I'm slowly slippin' under
Take my life
I've waived my rights
Like a star in supernova
And I Love being alone
Playing with a gun
The bloods on the floor
Heads on the door
And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
It's all your Fault
All your fault

And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
The bloods on the floor
Heads on the door
And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
The girls on the run
She's always
On the run
On the run

I swear I saw God in a 7-11
If my heads in the oven
Am I gettin' to heaven?
He gave me a shot of the Holy Ghost
And suddenly I'm fine
We race tonight on the black ice
Crucified on a cell phone tower
Hit me anywhere you want
'Til I'm broken by desire

And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
The bloods on the floor
Heads on the door
And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
It's all my fault
All my fault

And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
The bloods on the floor
Heads on the door
And I love being alone
Playing with a gun
The girls on the run
She's always
On the run
On the run
She's always
On the run

She's always
On the run
Yeah
