Lyrics Don't Leave Your Mark On Me (Mark 2) - John Parr

Under your protective wing I walked into the night
And a thousand angry demons, up and took flight
I went running through the fields, with the fever in my veins
And the rain came crashing down and tried to clean my name

Above my head, all in red, I could see you, bearing down on me

You said you're not running out, said you're not leaving now
Forever, mine forever

Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not stayin', I'm just killing time
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not stayin' no, I'm not stayin' no

Mistress of the darkness, accomplice of the night
Shadow in the doorway, beckons me inside
And something led the way, though I couldn't see its face
But a voice from deep inside me screamed to get out of this place

In my head blood ran red, as the jailer turned the key on me

He said you're not running out, said you're not leaving now
I will find you, there is no way, there is no way, no way, yeah

Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not stayin', I'm just killing time
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not stayin', I'm losing my mind
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not staying no, I'm not staying no no

Just as the shadows fall, I hear the screaming silence call
This madness never ends, memories of absent friends

Don't leave your mark on me

Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not stayin', I'm just killing time

Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not stayin', I'm losing my mind
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not staying no, I'm not staying no no
(Repeats out)
