The sky was crying
A dark language that
None of us can speak
Soak me to the bone
Drown me upon my throne
And swept me off my feet

I was hoping that a miracle would save me
Because I could feel the devil closing in
So I went down to the river
Tried to wash away my sins
But there were no gods in the water
Just reflections of my face
The visions of my demons
Cause my soul to slip away

No, I don't want to hurt no more
I chase the night but it won't set me free
When darkness falls and thunder closes in
I'm running to the wild, I'm running to the wild

What once glittered gold
Is now coated in rust
The sign of an empire in the dust
The streets on fire
And the people watch it burn
And I still don't know which way to turn

I was hoping that a miracle would save me
Because I could feel the devil closing in
So I went down to the river
Tried to wash away my sins
But there were no gods in the water
Just reflections of my face
The visions of my demons cause my soul to slip away

No, I don't want to hurt no more
I chase the night but it won't set me free
When darkness falls and thunder closes in
I'm running to the wild, I'm running to the wild
I'm running to the wild
I'm running to the wild
