Rock'n'roll erased my memory,nI once had a book of many,nLike a tidal wave come crashing down.nLooking on the dark side bright eyes,nCover up your ears from my cries,nI'd like to settle in but I won't back down.nn(chorus)nLike a devil on the run, or a sympathetic gun,nBaby, I just can't slow down.nThere's a killer in the sea, it's really you and me.nSwear that I can see the ground, even when the lights are down.nnReckoning is dead and buried,nSilent like a cemetery,nIn a shallow grave you hit the ground.nLooking at the bright side, black eyes,nCover up my ears from your cries,nI'd like to let you win but I won't back down.nn(chorus)nLike a devil on the run, or a sympathetic gun,nBaby, I just can't slow down.nThere's a killer in the sea, it's really you and me.nSwear that I can see the ground, even when the lights are down.nnI will drink to this, and let this song begin with you.nIn this emptiness, on the outside of it all.nn(chorus)nLike a devil on the run, or a sympathetic gun,nBaby, I just can't slow down.nThere's a killer in the sea, it's really you and me.nSwear that I can see the ground, even when the lights are down.
