Runnin' Across The Tracks Lyrics - Dead Silence - Billy Talent

It's up to you! 

This ain't no TV show 

You watch my head explode 

Ten thousand hours every day 

No time to be afraid 

Chase up the rattle snakes 

Don't let your fear control your fate 

The ghost of self denial 

It whispers from the grave 

The road you can't rely on 

Is a risk that you must take 

I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Oh, I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Pulling the blindfolds back 

All we did in life 

I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Oh, I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

We're gonna escape this trap 

Gotta get a life 

Stuck in this prison cell 

Just like a criminal 

I count the years that went to waste 

If this road goes to hell 

I'm right back where I fell 

Made a career from my mistakes 

The ghost of self denial 

It whispers from the grave 

The road you can't rely on 

Could be your saving grace 

I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Oh, I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Pulling the blindfolds back 

All we did in life 

I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Oh, I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

We're gonna escape this trap 

Gotta get a life 

And every step that I aim to take 

(I fall behind, I fall behind) 

And every leg that I have to break 

(These scars are mine, These scars are mine) 

And everyday that I'd pray for you 

(I close my eyes, I close my eyes) 

At least I can say that we made it through 

(The stars aligned, The stars aligned) 

The stars aligned 

The stars aligned 

And words just can't explain the struggle of a dead men's fight 

A dead mens fight 

And silver spoons get by the wasted mother hard earns life 

A hard earns life 

Every step that I aim to take 

(I fall behind, I fall behind) 

And every leg that I have to break 

(These scars are mine, These scars are mine) 

And everyday that I'd pray for you 

(I close my eyes, I close my eyes) 

And I hope that you make it through 

Yeah, I hope that you make through 

It's up to you! 

I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Oh, I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Pulling the blindfolds back 

All we did in life 

I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

Oh, I'm running across the tracks, 

(And I'm never coming back) 

We're gonna escape this trap 

Gotta get a life 

And every step that I aim to take 

(I fall behind, I fall behind) 

And every leg that I have to break 

(These scars are mine, These scars are mine) 

And everyday that I'd pray for you 

(I close my eyes, I close my eyes) 

At least I can say that we made it through 

(The stars aligned, The stars aligned) 

The stars aligned
