VERSE 1
We were born with our backs against the exit sign,
Raised on dead ends and borrowed time.
Every promise felt like a chain on the wrist,
So we cut ’em loose, didn’t care who we pissed.
We learned fast that the world don’t wait,
So we carved our names in the rusted gate.
Every heartbeat was a warning bell,
Every night a dare to run like hell.
PRE‑CHORUS
We don’t slow down, we don’t look back,
We’re the spark that jumps the track.
CHORUS
We run like hell ’cause the fire feels good,
Burning down everything we said we would.
If the world wants rules, we’ll break ’em again —
We were never meant to fit in.
Yeah, we run like hell with the wind in our teeth,
Chasing the life that was chasing me.
VERSE 2
We were kids with a match and a gasoline grin,
Lighting up the dark just to feel something.
Every scar we earned was a badge of proof
That we lived too loud to be bulletproof.
They said “grow up,” but we never did,
We just learned how to hide the reckless kid.
But he breaks out every time I yell —
He’s the reason I still run like hell.
PRE‑CHORUS
We don’t slow down, we don’t look back,
We’re the spark that jumps the track.
CHORUS
We run like hell ’cause the fire feels good,
Burning down everything we said we would.
If the world wants rules, we’ll break ’em again —
We were never meant to fit in.
Yeah, we run like hell with the wind in our teeth,
Chasing the life that was chasing me.
BRIDGE
Maybe freedom’s just a moving line,
Maybe peace is something we’ll never find.
But I’d rather die with my lungs on fire
Than live one day without desire.
FINAL CHORUS
We run like hell ’cause the fire feels good,
Burning down everything we said we would.
If the world wants quiet, we’ll scream instead —
We’re the ones they’ll fear when the sky turns red.
Yeah, we run like hell with the wind in our teeth,
Chasing the life that was chasing me.
