Taking me down into your heart
Although I'm wild as sin
Become a beast at dark
And still you let me in...

Running barefoot
Running through the dark
I've been here before
I've been torn apart
And I'm back for more...

'Cos nobody ever got you good
You know how to hit and run
And the day I catch your flag
Is the day you'll grab your gun
You said, "Whoever draws first blood has won"

And it's the last thing you say
Before you walk away
A line through those trees
And when all's said and done
I was first to grab the gun
Watched you fall to your knees
As I felt the bullet leave...
As I felt the bullet, I felt the bullet...

Taking me down into your heart
Oh boy, I love your faith
Come search my body for
Your final resting place

Pulling me on to holy ground
Somewhere I've never been
Come crucify me now
Like I'm a sacred thing...

How d'you earn what it takes
To watch the bullet break
A line through those trees?
And when all's said and done
Did I turn around and run?
You watched me fall to my knees
As you felt the bullet leave...
As you felt the bullet, you felt the bullet leave...

And maybe it's what we both need
To get down and grieve
Maybe it's what we both need
To get up and leave
Lately, it's what we both need
To finally breathe...
Boy, did you get what you need
Taking me down?

Taking me down into your heart
Although I'm wild as sin
Become a beast at dark
And still you let me in...

Runnin' barefoot
Runnin' through the dark
I've been here before
I've been torn apart
And I'm back for more...
