lyrics

This road stretches out for miles
and I can't see the destination
and I'm in need of confirmation
that I'm heading the right way

The path was clear until moments ago
when it fled across the horizon
I need to catch my breath,
it's time to pick up the pace

Always moving forward towards the thin line of light,
that's still left over from when it was bright
footsteps echoing into the night
kicking up dirt I'm leaving this path behind

Panic takes a hold, I'm chilled to the bone
as a sound like no other pounds onto stone
all the stories that I once believed,
are coming back to me,

And as I run on this road
they all come to life
and I'm tired of running
but it's how I'll survive

I'm out of breath and beaten down
but they won't catch me alive
and I'm tired of running
but I'm pretty sure it's how I'll survive

Horror or fairy tale, legend or myth
it doesn't really matter when you're knee-deep in shit
'cause the focus has been lifted from the matters at hand
you should pick a side, say where you stand
we're leaning on the edge of extinction, bombs in our hands
and you really need to pick a side, so say where you stand

And as I run on this road
they all come to life
and I'm tired of running
but it's how I'll survive

We're at a crossroads
and the decision will be final
to determine who will fight
and if this will be our downfall

So without a moment's hesitation
I gave into despair
and as I ran in the opposite direction
blood on my hands
a voice carried out into the night, shouting
say where you stand

And as I run on this road
they all come to life
and I'm tired of running
but it's how I'll survive

I'm out of breath and beaten down
but they won't catch me alive
and I'm tired of running
so tired of running

As I run on this road
they all come to life
and I'm tired of running
but it's how I'll survive

I'm out of breath and beaten down
but they won't catch me alive
and I'm tired of running
but I'm pretty sure it's how I'll survive
