I met a devil and they laid me down
Made a promise not to hold me back
Couldn't see it when they turned around
Everything was turning black
Speeding fast down an open road
I can feel you underneath my skin
Now you're smiling as I lose control
Lord, what a mess I'm in
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running to the headlights hoping I can find a way
I can find a way
I'm running straight ahead and I'm always shot
Never open the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running to the headlights
Bitter taste of a sweeter state
Only left me wanting more and more
My delusions and my mistakes
I don't know what I came here for
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running to the headlights hoping I can find a way
I can find a way
I'm running straight ahead and I'm always shot
Never open the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running to the headlights
I can see your eyes when I'm here on the floor
Don't wanna see them anymore
I won't let you by when you knock at the door
I know what you came here for
I'm hoping for a better day, for a better day
I'm running to the headlights
I'm running straight ahead and I'm always shot
Couldn't rival it all
I have a little second but you made me crawl
I'm not sitting waiting for you to show your love anymore
I'm running straight ahead and I'm always shot
Never open the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running straight ahead and I'm always shot
Never open the door
If I never see your face again, I want you to know
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running for a better day, for a better day
I'm running to the headlights
I'm running straight ahead and I'm always shot
