[Verse 1]

Oh Lord, I've been speaking your name every day

And oh Lord, I'm still hearing her voice when I pray

That devil's tongue never worked on me, but certainly I felt her hands

I raise my gun to defend your name and through my veins speak your commands

[Chorus]

Boy, I told you to run

Well, I told you to run

[Verse 2]

Oh Lord, I'm still speaking your name every day

Thirty-nine more and I'm home to learn this foe will burn it all again

Certainties are aligned by the broken things he sold to tease

All my ease was sabotaged by the things she spoke to me

[Chorus]

Boy, I told you to run

Well, I told you to run

[Outro]

You speak in tongues, you speak in tongues, you dirty little liar

Still it's all that makes me smile

You never learn to use your lungs, just breathe for a while

Fight off your demons and plead your trials
