Lyrics

Stay with me tonight
Please don't go away
I need you by my side
They'll come for my life
Don't let me close my eyes
Keep me awake tonight

He knows the secrets that I keep
Attacks me in my sleep and sucks me dry

Chorus:

Oooooh - I'm running on empty
The demons are haunting me, all through my life
Oooooh - I'm running on empty
The devil is after me, all dressed in white
It comes down tonight

Stop this cruel decline
Already lost one eye
The other one half blind
They crawl under your skin
Slowly creeping in
Until they finally win
They know your weakest spot within
Don't ever let 'em in - Just close your mind

Chorus:

Oooooh - I'm running on empty
The demons are haunting me - all through my life
Oooooh - I'm running on empty
The devil is after me, all dressed in white
Stay by my side

My resistance's breaking - I got nowhere to go
Can't you hear me banging on your door
(Oh Father please) Let me in (let me in) Let me in
Please fill me up once more

Chorus:

Oooooh - I'm running on empty
The demons are haunting me - all through my life
Oooooh - I'm running on empty
The devil is after me, all dressed in white
It comes down tonight
