They set the dogs on me And picked up on my scent A hunted animal Hiding in the shadows The pack is coming near I hear them everywhere But I'm staying on the run Never put my hands up Somewhere I know I will be safe again Restless, exhausted, nearly unconscious I run as fast as I can And I will not surrender To my own demon That hunts me in my head Trapped at the forest glade I see their evil grins Staring into my eyes Encircled at the dead end But there's a final chance Moving up to the edge I catch a final breath And fall into the abyss Somewhere I know I will be safe again Restless, exhausted, nearly unconscious I run as fast as I can And I will not surrender To my own demon That hunts me in my head Running and bounding Heartbeat is pounding I don't know where I should go And I'll never surrender To my own demon That hunts me in my head Why, why are you hunting me You're just an illusion in my head Leave, don't you ever come back I'm the only master of myself Somewhere I know I will be safe again Restless, exhausted, nearly unconscious I run as fast as I can And I will not surrender To my own demon That hunts me in my head Running and bounding Heartbeat is pounding I don't know where I should go And I'll never surrender To my own demon That hunts me
