Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Unholy war

My demons are coming

Boy, you better run

Go take your freedom, oh no

Wait in the water

Be gone by Monday

Don't you let them find you here, oh no

[Verse 2]

Let love lead you home, oh no

Let redemption keep you warm

So you better run

You better run

[Verse 3]

Time has come

Future is now, oh Lord

Stage is yours

Go take your bow

Weather the storm

The clouds will pass you by

Hit the road, oh Lord

Leave your sorrows behind

[Verse 4]

Oh, would you let love lead you home, oh please

Let redemption keep you warm

So you better run

You better run

[Verse 5]

(I know it's killing you)

Well, well, well, well

(You gotta leave)

You gotta leave me now, love

(I know it's killing you) Oh, no

(You gotta leave) Oh, no

[Chorus]

(I know it's killing you)

I know it's killing you

(You gotta leave)

Oh, you gotta leave me here, love

(I know it's killing you) Yeah

(You gotta leave)

[Verse 6]

So you better run, oh run, yeah darlin'

You better run

Oh, save yourself peace

You better run

You better run
