Underneath cathedral stars We were saints and thieves with untainted hearts And every breath we breathed was a silent prayer to stay We made a love that set the world on fire Turned all our critics into liars We burned up the night and never looked away I'm not claiming that we were sane That kind of crazy cannot be tamed Oh, wild things run Oh, wild things run If the angels start to weep then we'll know the devils won Oh, wild things run Oh, wild things run They'll stumble in the dark just to chase a morning Sun Oh Well, the stars that crowned us fell away And the silence started to betray Every road that lay ahead was crumbling dust Where the words used to rise up from our bones Now we hum the tune, but we forgot the song Every diamond that we made had turned to rust If there's a God out there to trust I hope he's as wild as us Oh, wild things run Oh, wild things run If the angels start to weep then we'll know the devils won Oh, wild things run To kingdom come They'll stumble in the dark just to chase a morning Sun Oh, wild things run Oh, wild things run Oh, oh Oh, wild things run To kingdom come Oh, oh Oh, wild things run Oh, wild things run
