Lyrics

Running Wild

[Verse]

We say life is meant this way but we break

We say we are born this way, so, why change?

Seeping down, deep and down in me

Holding on, 'cause I can hardly breathe

It's darker now, the silence brings me sleep

I'm yearning for a hunger in my dreams, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

We are young and we are free

But we don't know how we are meant to be

If we are meant to see

All this trouble in my mind

My heart is searching far and wide, wide

[Chorus]

Baby boy running wild

Said my mind is older now

I can't block it out

Baby boy running wild

Said my mind is older now

I can't block it out

Baby boy running wild

Said my mind is older now

I can't block it out

[Verse]

We say life is meant this way but we break

We say we are born this way, so, why change?

Seeping down, deep and down in me

Holding on, 'cause I can hardly breathe

It's darker now, the silence brings me sleep

I'm yearning for a hunger in my dreams, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

We are young and we are free

But we don't know how we are meant to be

If we are meant to see

All this trouble in my mind

My heart is searching far and wide, wide

[Chorus]

Baby boy running wild

Said my mind is older now

I can't block it out

Baby boy running wild

Said my mind is older now

I can't block it out

Baby boy running wild

Said my mind is older now

I can't block it out
