Lyrics

Four Days Runnin'


I don't know what spell I'm under
Feels like something's chasing me
Looking back I have to wonder
What took me so long to leave

ON THE DARKSIDE OF THE GREAT DIVIDE
WHERE HOPE IS BURIED WHEN DREAMS HAVE DIED
THERE'S NO ESCAPING THE MOUNTAINSLIDE
I'M FOUR DAYS RUNNIN' TO THE OTHER SIDE

Racing from obscure existence
It's a burden baby just to breathe
Still I know I gotta go the distance
Til it's certain that I am free

FROM THE DARKSIDE OF THE GREAT DIVIDE
WHERE HOPE IS BURIED WHEN DREAMS HAVE DIED
AND THERE'S NO ESCAPING THE MOUNTAINSLIDE
I'M FOUR DAYS RUNNIN' TO THE OTHER SIDE

It's like over under, lightening thunder
It's like over under, lightening thunder
bridge
And the sunrise seems farther every day but i've
got to keep running that way

IF THE HEARTBREAK AND THE FEAR COLLIDE
SURRENDER ALWAYS GETS JUSTIFIED
TO TURN BACK NOW WOULD BE SUICIDE
I'M FOUR DAYS RUNNIN, FOUR DAYS RUNNIN
FROM THE DARKSIDE OF THE GREAT DIVIDE
WHERE HOPE IS BURIED WHEN DREAMS HAVE DIED
AND THERE'S NO ESCAPING THE MOUNTAINSLIDE
I'M FOUR DAYS RUNNIN' TO THE OTHER SIDE
