Parr John - Don't Leave Your Mark On Me lyrics

rate me

Under your protective wing I walked into the night<br />

And a thousand angry demons up and took flight<br />

I went running through the fields with the fever in my veins<br />

And the rain came crashing down and tried to clear my name<br />

Above my head, all in red, I could see you bearing down on me<br />

You said you're not running out, you said you're not leaving now<br />

I will find you, there is no way<br />

I'll keep tracking you down in the still of the night<br />

Forever, you're mine forever<br />

Chorus:<br />

Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply<br />

I'm not staying, I'm just killing time<br />

Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply<br />

I'm not staying, no, I'm not staying no<br />

This nightmare never ends, memories of absent friends<br />

Mistress of the darkness, accomplice of the night<br />

A shadow in the doorway beckons me inside<br />

And something led the way though I couldn't see it's face<br />

And a voice from deep inside me screamed to get out of this place<br />

In my head, someone said that the jailor turned the key on me<br />

He said you're not running out, he said you're not leaving now<br />

I will find you, there ain't no way, no way, yeah<br />

(chorus)<br />

This nightmare never ends, memories of absent friends<br />

(Solo)<br />

Don't leave your mark on me<br />

(Nightmares that will never end, drink a toast to absent friends)<br />

(repeats out)<br />
