How  fast you gonna run? Away  from this one.
 Anywhere  but here, you  wanna disappear.
 Into the next  daylight,  where everything's right.
It's  always somewhere else, you're gonna  fix yourself.
Once  shame and guilt  had made their mark.
 fast)
Well  you can't  run away from the nagging  dark.
You  carry it everywhere in  your heart.
It  finishes everything that  you  start.
And,  you can't run away from  the nagging dark.
How  much you gonna cost?  When  everything's  lost.
What  a price you'd pay, just to feel  some way.
 Cause your heart has stone,  round down  to the  bone.
How  your flesh and blood, is just ashes and  mud.
Feels  like your soul's  been blown apart.
 Repeat Chorus
How  far can you see? Will  you ever be  free?
Through  the blackest night,  aw you still hold on tight.
 Hope  is your  finest work.  It's your  finest work.
 Hope  is your  finest work of  all.
 Repeat Chorus 2X
