Put down for a little while, yeah, this time I'm really in,
You're on no first name basis with the stranger in your skin,
Betrayal, she's a girl, yeah, I slept with once or twice,
Treason, her next of kin - she was more than nice,
And all your best intentions sleep under a sky with no stars.

And you run through my veins to my heart,
And you run through my veins, oh.

When I'm sure of nothing, certain of everything else,
The longer that we do this, we feel less and less ourselves,
Hey, why is it when you climb up here you can't find a place to hide'
Hey, why is it when you climb up here it feels like suicide'
And all your best intentions sleep under a sky with no stars.

And you run through my veins to my heart,
And you run through my veins, oh.

Put down for a little while; time to bandage up these wounds,
Time to find some spare parts, time to ration fuel,
Plant your victory garden; place a flower there for me,
"Come into your, kingdom Lord," said the thief from the tree,
And all your best intentions sleep under a sky with no stars.

And you run through my veins to my heart,
And you run through my veins,
Oh, and you run through my veins to my heart,
Oh, and you run through my veins, oh.

You run through my veins, yeah,
You run through my veins, oh.
