These days I'm always running
Looking for a place to hide
A shelter front the war
That's raging away on the inside
But as I hear the rolling thunder
And I scream into the skies
I hear the song of my salvation
Echo just beneath my eyes
I know that there is trouble
In the company I keep
And fears for friends and family
Make it hard for me to sleep
But I lay upon a bed of roses
And do the best to mind the thorns
And I pray the song of my salvation
Will carry me to different shores
I know the day will come
That all our bodies will turn cold
But oftentimes I think that I'm
Too young to feel this old
They say a river's still a river
Though the waters all have gone
So no matter how it changes
Different names and different faces
Know my final resting place is
Singin my salvation song
