I ran from the devil
He was on my back
From the Blue Ridge Mountains
I followed your path
I jumped in the river to cleanse my skin
Well my skin froze again when the snow came down
Still in the dark I cry your name!
Jesus won't save your pain
Jesus won't save your pain
I learned you can't run from the dirt in your past
Mistakes don't disperse through the mountain pa**
Some say it was the wind that dragged me down
But I know like a face is what made me drown
Still in the dark I cry your name!
Jesus won't save your pain
Jesus won't save your pain
