Conspiracy of Violet - The Devil's Due Lyrics

Run, run, run, run away
Run, run, run, run away

Steaming chamber: the fog is heavy
Wipe the mirror, the drops leave a trail
In that looking glass, he sees a person
He can't connect with for lines and for grey
Laying forgotten in a dusty drawer
Drawings, papers, blue ink from a dream
Lock the door tight, reset the pattern
Detached, and pushing those memories away

Run, run, run, run away, run away
Run, run, run

Inching forward, chirps the guidance
Expect delays, as happens each day
Rearview mirror catches glimpses
An old man furrowed, remembering a tale
Once a young boy dreamt of flying
Falling to Earth after chasing the Sun
Shaking head forgets; but there's something
It's gnawing, clawing, no mouth but it wails

Run, run, run, run away, run away
Run, run, run, run away, run away

On the seas grow winds and shadows
Make a penance, gather remnants
Wake the morrow, pay off what's owed
Rise at long last: take this last chance

Water rushing from the bottom
This sinking coffin of plastic and steel
For these comforts signed a blood oath
Sacrificed all the futures for here

Run, run, run, run away
Break the glass and swim for day
Be baptised, saved, run far away

Run, run, run, run away, run away
Run, run, run, run away, run away

When the darkness falls, run away
When you hear doubts call, run away
When the clock has stalled, run away
When you hear doubts call, run away
