Night Terrors of 1927 - Running In Place lyrics

Walk into a cathedral made of lead They were on their knees, they were in their beds Staying up all night praying on the letter they sent Gave a confession, just forgot what I said In the dark alleys with the black cats and cliché Fall the white ashes of the ones we tried to save Saw the sky turn red from the storm we chased As the colors run towards our last day We are running in place (We are, we are) bones that are breaking (We are, we are) ground and it's shaking (We are, we are) lives that we're taking We are running in place Wake me up tonight and raise me from the grave Smoke the devil out chase the demons all away And we watch the crowd as the sky turn grey And we spun our weaves never moved away We are running in place (We are, we are) bones that are breaking (We are, we are) ground and it's shaking (We are, we are) lives that we're taking We are running in place (We are, we are) blades that are spinning (We are, we are) cups that are brimming (We are, we are) lives and we're living We'll let the world turn on its head We'll let the pillars turn to sand We'll let the wolves out of their den We are, we are, we are We are bones that are breaking We are lives that we're taking We are running in place (We are, we are) bones that are breaking (We are, we are) ground and it's shaking (We are, we are) lives that we're taking We are running in place (We are, we are) blades that are spinning (We are, we are) cups that are brimming (We are, we are) lives and we're living We are running in place
