Symphony X Lyrics
"Run With The Devil"

I'm on the run, nowhere to turn, they're on my heels
Lost in the maze, where do I go?
Am I insane, it's just a game of the life or death
Stay the course and ride the flow
I cross the bridge, I'm reach the gates
I'm out of breath, chasing the clock, I'm out of time
I hear the dogs, I feel the claws rake down my back
There's no escape, no peace of mind

Oh – Just hold on
Oh – Just hold on
I'm on my way to you

Run with the devil
Run for your life
The truth of the moment, it cuts like a knife
Chasing a shadow
Still chasing a dream
When it's do or die, you know there's no in between

I see the fiends, they're on the move, they strike with fear
Give them the slip, I duck the blade
I knuckle-down, I roll the dice, I dance with death
Lost in the realm of light and shade
My path is weak, it falls away, I feel the heat
The fires of hell beneath me rise
Caught in a trap, there's no way out, walls closing in
Is this the hour of my demise?

Oh – Just hold on
Oh – Just hold on
I'm on my way to you

Run with the devil
Run for your life
The truth of the moment, it cuts like a knife
Chasing a shadow
Still chasing a dream.
When it's do or die, you know there's no in between

I've searched the depths of hell to find the key
I've wasted time, now time has wasted me

Run with the devil
Run for your life
The truth of the moment, it cuts like a knife
Chasing a shadow
Still chasing a dream.
When it's do or die, you know there's no in between
