OUTRUN YOUR DEMONS by GLORIA DELUXE
-------------------------------------
[Intro]
x 6
[Verse 1]
I tried to outrun my demons
But they snuck around the back way and headed me off at the curve
In a fierce ambush
I may as well have balanced a bucket of water on the head of a pin
Because to shed your demons you d have to shed your own skin
[Chorus]
So if there s a way out of my skin
I d like to know just what it is
I want a new language and a new tongue, a new strategy
[Verse 2]
Cuz I tried to outrun my demons
It was like trying to catch a dark cloud with a butterfly net
It was like trying to walk across freshly fallen snow without leaving tracks
Cuz the past has a way of coming back
[Chorus 2]
So I m gonna get to know those little demons
So I can know where they end and I begin
I m gonna peel back that fine line
That divides me from my mind
[Chorus]
So if there s a way out of my skin
I d like to know just what it is
I want a new language and a new tongue, a new strategy
[Outro]
