Intro: Verse Running down the road, breath is misty cold Everything I touch leaves blood on the stone The hounds are on my trail, I see the cross and nails Everything is felt deep in my bones Pre-Chorus But I tried, oh, I tried, how I tried Every time I got close, I could never get inside So I wait, oh, I wait, every night and day, I wait But my fear is closing in and the ground has started Shaking All my dreams have started breaking Hold me, honey, I'm still aching N.C. I'm sorry, but I, I'm sorry, but I can't stop I'm sorry, I just can't stop shaking, ah Verse:: I can't get away, every door I take Leads me back into the maze A laughter or a scream, everything's extreme Come on look at me, how much more can I take? Pre-Chorus But I tried, oh, I tried, how I tried Every time I got close, I could never get inside So I wait, oh, I wait, every night and day, I wait But my fear is closing in and the ground has started Shaking All my dreams have started breaking Hold me, honey, I'm still aching I'm sorry, but I, I'm sorry, but I can't stop I'm sorry, I just can't stop shaking, ah I just can't stop shaking BREAK: Look me in the eyes, tell me you still believe I can make it through the night, I just have to breathe Breathe in (Breathe in), Breathe out (Breathe out) Breathe in (Breathe in), Breathe out (Breathe out) Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe out Breathe in, breathe out Oh, I just can't stop Shaking All my dreams have started breaking Hold me, honey, I'm still aching I'm sorry, but I, I'm sorry, but I can't stop I'm sorry, I just can't stop Shaking All my dreams have started breaking Hold me, honey, I'm still aching N.C. I'm sorry, but I, I'm sorry, but I can't stop I'm sorry, I just can't stop shaking, ha I just can't stop shaking
