No Eden - Sin City Lyrics

So let the story begin, I was five years old
Standing on the edge of everything I know, just
Black smoke and a broken home
Cuts in my skin and and a few broken bones

Like a cannon through the windscreen
For a second I was flying, baby, I was free but
Now the world is catching up with me
Saying 'hope is gone'

So kid, run to the dark of the night
Just run the night away
Run from the scene of the crime

Hear the sirens in the distance
Tell them that you'll miss them
But you'll be alright
Don't let me catch you looking back now
Cause you'll never find out
Chase the streets into the night

Let go what you can't control
Get lost along the way

So let the story unfold, as I hit the street
Rolling to a stop against the tar and concrete
A lost boy in a black disguise
His father's fuse and his mothers eyes

So run to the dark of the night
Just run from the scene of the crime

Hear the sirens in the distance
Tell them that you'll miss them
But you'll be alright
Don't let me catch you looking back now
Cause you'll never find out
Chase the streets into the night

The crash kicked up the dust and
It just settled on me
You both said 'you can trust us'
But it was my turn to leave
I didn't know what to do, I was just a kid
My world burning, with no turning back
I didn't know what to say, I was just a kid
Start running, start running, run!

Hear the sirens in the distance
Tell them that you'll miss them but you'll be alright
Don't let me catch you looking back now
Cause you'll never find out
Chase the streets into the night

Hear the sirens in the distance
Run to the dark of the night
Oh kid you're gonna be just fine

Hear the sirens in the distance
Run from the scene of the crime
Just chase the streets into the night
