[Verse 1]
I was a boy by the river
With dust on my shoes
Then the sky split open
And the morning burned blue
I saw my mother falling
I saw my father's hand
I kept on running, running
Through the broken sand
[Pre-Chorus]
Every bell was screaming
Every roof gave way
I learned how death can find you
In the middle of the day
[Chorus]
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
Hold on, hold on
Or you die for sure
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
I was alive before
Now I fight for more
[Verse 2]
Years went by like smoke rings
Scars under my skin
I thought the worst was over
Till the beast came in
It came out of the harbor
Tall as broken steel
My friends were on the sidewalk
I still hear them squeal
[Pre-Chorus]
Windows turned to powder
Bridges bent and cracked
I saw the old fear wake up
And it never left me back
[Chorus]
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
Hold on, hold on
Or you die for sure
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
I was alive before
Now I fight for more
[Bridge]
I keep their names in my mouth
Like stones in a storm
If I stop moving now
Then the dark wins more
So I crawl through the ash
Through the smoke and bone
One scared little heartbeat
Still beating on its own
[Chorus]
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
Hold on, hold on
Or you die for sure
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
I was alive before
Now I fight for more
[Outro]
Run from the roar
Run from the roar
I keep running
I keep running
