lyrics

Over the miles I have begun
To measure out the distance run

Life in exile’s no longer fun
Dodging friendly fire
From the starting gun

 Well you can tell yourself
Any story you like
And you can justify the ends
With the means out of sight
I’m hanging on for dear life
I’m hanging on for dear life, baby

The wolf at the door
Is thirsty for more
And plans to soon return  For her encore

Hunter and prey have built a rapport
Spilling out across the killing floor

Well you can tell yourself
Any story you like
And you can justify the ends  
With the means out of sight
I’m holding on for dear life  
(Just out of sight, just out of sight)
I’m holding on for dear life now baby

Over the miles I have begun
(Staring backwards)
Over the miles
Staring backwards at the damage done

Well you can tell yourself
Any story you like
And you can justify the ends  With the means out of sight
I’m hanging on for dear life
(Just out of sight, just out of sight) 
I’m hanging on for dear life now baby
