## Lyrics

Go run and hold to safer grounds

But don't you know we're stronger now

My heart still beats and my skin still feels

My lungs still breathe and my mind still fears

But we're running out of time (Time)

All the echoes in my mind cry

There's blood on your lies

And the skies open wide

There is nowhere for you to hide

The hunter's moon is shining

I'm running with the wolves tonight

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the wolves tonight

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the

Locked or free, what would it be?

My spirit talks, I'm everything

But wе're running out of time (Time)

All the echoes in my mind cry

There's blood on your lies

And the skies open wide

There is nowhere for you to hide

The hunter's moon is shining

I'm running with the wolves tonight

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the wolves tonight

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the

A gift, a curse

They track and hurt

Don't let your dreams go incomplete

I'm running with the

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the

I'm running with the

I'm running with the

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the wolves tonight

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the wolves tonight

I'm running with the wolves

I'm running with the
