Rock'n'roll erased my memory,   I once had a book of many,   Like a tidal wave come crashing down.   Looking on the dark side bright eyes,   Cover up your ears from my cries,   I'd like to settle in but I won't back down.      (chorus)   Like a devil on the run, or a sympathetic gun,   Baby, I just can't slow down.   There's a killer in the sea, it's really you and me.   Swear that I can see the ground, even when the lights are down.      Reckoning is dead and buried,   Silent like a cemetery,   In a shallow grave you hit the ground.   Looking at the bright side, black eyes,   Cover up my ears from your cries,   I'd like to let you win but I won't back down.      (chorus)   Like a devil on the run, or a sympathetic gun,   Baby, I just can't slow down.   There's a killer in the sea, it's really you and me.   Swear that I can see the ground, even when the lights are down.      I will drink to this, and let this song begin with you.   In this emptiness, on the outside of it all.      (chorus)   Like a devil on the run, or a sympathetic gun,   Baby, I just can't slow down.   There's a killer in the sea, it's really you and me.   Swear that I can see the ground, even when the lights are down.
