Running In Place Lyrics - Everything's Coming Up Roses - Night Terrors Of 1927

Walk into a cathedral made of lead 

They were on their knees, they were in their beds 

Staying up all night praying on the letter they sent 

Gave a confession, just forgot what I said 

In the dark alleys with the black cats and cliché 

Fall the white ashes of the ones we tried to save 

Saw the sky turn red from the storm we chased 

As the colors run towards our last day 

We are running in place 

(We are, we are) bones that are breaking 

(We are, we are) ground and it's shaking 

(We are, we are) lives that we're taking 

We are running in place 

Wake me up tonight and raise me from the grave 

Smoke the devil out chase the demons all away 

And we watch the crowd as the sky turn grey 

And we spun our weaves never moved away 

We are running in place 

(We are, we are) bones that are breaking 

(We are, we are) ground and it's shaking 

(We are, we are) lives that we're taking 

We are running in place 

(We are, we are) blades that are spinning 

(We are, we are) cups that are brimming 

(We are, we are) lives and we're living 

We'll let the world turn on its head 

We'll let the pillars turn to sand 

We'll let the wolves out of their den 

We are, we are, we are 

We are bones that are breaking 

We are lives that we're taking 

We are running in place 

(We are, we are) bones that are breaking 

(We are, we are) ground and it's shaking 

(We are, we are) lives that we're taking 

We are running in place 

(We are, we are) blades that are spinning 

(We are, we are) cups that are brimming 

(We are, we are) lives and we're living 

We are running in place
