outside the lines of baltimore

there's a cemetary sleeping

i stopped to watch you yelling at your dog

the effect was rather creepy

in front of strangers long since gone

i watched you hammer home your hate

someday you'll look back at what you've become

a ghost behind a gate



chorus

oh ohh oh

i wish i could run to save you

i wish i could run

i wish i could run to save you

i can't be the one



you could blame it on the way he would hit you

the taste of blood mingled with shame

and there's a feeling that lies deep within you

but you cannot give it a name

no one can understand me you say

no one knows your pain

you shake your fists and raise your voice

here comes the madness again



chorus

oh ohh oh

i wish i could run to save you

i wish i could run

i wish i could run to save you

i can't be the one

no i can't be the one



you wish you were more like me but i'm not

who you make me out to be

you wish you were more like me but

i'm not who you make me out to be

no one can understand me you say

no one knows your pain

you shake your fists and raise your voice

here comes the madness again



chorus

oh ohh oh

i wish i could run to save you

i wish i could run

i wish i could run to save you

i can't be that

i wish i could run to save you

ohh i wish i could run

i wish i could run to save you

i can't be the one





no i can't be the one

no i can't be the one
