Lyrics[edit | edit source]

running wild 'till i'm faced with the dawn
[?] by illusion
forgive me not but remember toiled rage
it's at the drop
as such charge and communion
to call etern

oh sure, laugh about it
to thy and them
and here knows when

'cause I still watch your dream
what happens, happens to me
i'm taking on the chin
if love is goodbye
so long, farewell

running wild, i've nothing left to prove
not where i've been or i'm going
so hand in hand carouseling all of that
they'll leave me too
with the stars in tandem
and fresh concrete

oh sure, laugh about it
to thy and them
and here knows when

'cause I still watch your dream
what happens, happens to me
i'm taking on the chin
if love is goodbye
so long, farewell

and I still watch your dream
what happens, happens to me
i'm taking on the chin
if love is goodbye
so long, farewell
