Running Out of Time

Wake up in the dead of night, your blood begins to boil

A thought that dwells inside you like a snake inside its coil

Stare into the mirror, strange eyes that look at you

You traded in your lifetime for an easy way or two

You lived your life precisely by the rules of the dead

Now you try to run my course but I'm a thousand miles ahead

You may find satisfaction when you're off the beaten track

But living ain't so easy with a monkey on your back

Fast and hard (You've been running)

Bruised and scarred (You had it coming)

All your life you've been told a lie

Now you're running out of time

You're running out of time

Don't ask me for no guidance 'cause I'd be the one to blame

What seems to be my cure may drive another one insane

Yeah, I'm a man of a different breed, descendent of the hound

If you keep on walking my way you'll end up six feet underground

Fast and hard (You've been running)

Bruised and scarred (You had it coming)

All your life you've been told a lie

And now you're running out of

Time and heart

Bruised and scarred

All your life you've been told a lie

Now you're running out of time

Now I can see it in your eyes, the reptile longs for more

If you wanna play in my den leave your baggage at the door

Your eyes, they look like pictures of a snowflake TV

Why don't you leave it all behind and take a ride with me?

So come on and ride with me

Come on and ride with me
