about

The fourth single from our upcoming album "Morning Comes".

lyrics

This could pose a threat to all we know and all we’ve ever known before
We live a life so humbly, we only ask for peace and nothing more
To find ourselves no longer safe, to feel this chill, it chills us too
To find that we may never wake again, another body

In the dark of the night when you feel a state of fright
When you find yourself alone without a signal on your cell phone
Without a soul in sight, you hear the flickering of the streetlights, girl
There’s one thing left to do, you don’t want him to get his hands on you

(Look out x20)

To keep ourselves from harm, we choose to arm each able body left at hand
And take him by alarm, we’ll burn his farm down to drive him from the land
To the see, he will flee, oh how he fled in fear, oh how he ran
And as the sun rose high in the sky, all we find, piled ashes

In the dark of the night when you feel a state of fright
When you find yourself alone without a signal on your cell phone
Without a soul in sight, you hear the flickering of the streetlights, girl
There’s one thing left to do, you don’t want him to get his hands on you

Woah, oh he’s never gonna let you go
So you just keep running, running, running on home now
Woah woah, even when you feel like you’ve got no place to go
No place to go, you just keep running, running, running on home

(solo)

You don’t want him to get his hands on you

Woah, oh he’s never gonna let you go
So you just keep running, running, running on home now
Woah woah, even though you feel like you’ve got no place to go
You just keep running, running, running
Woah, oh he’s never gonna let you go
So you just keep running, running, running on home now
Woah woah, even though you feel like you’ve got no place to go
No place to go, you just keep running, running, running on home

(Look out x20)
