about

Using the same wide-open, Southwestern imagery he introduced us to in ‘Space,’ this troubadour’s prayer truly illuminates Ryland Fisher’s storytelling and lyrical bite. Every detail in this acoustic ballad points back to the anguish of the song: like the way his vocal wants to linger a bit in the lyric before, and he’s fighting to pull it forward. The visuals, emotion, and, ultimately, the frustration of ‘Outrun the Devil’ will be running through your memory long after you’re done listening.

lyrics

Thousand miles from Caroline
Dotted lines pointed anywhere but there
Wheels keep on turning
But this heart ain’t getting nowhere
Thought a couple state lines and I’d forget
Just another town, the same old ghost
Still stuck in a goodbye kiss I don’t know how to let go

I been high as a cloud up in Colorado
Found a heart of gold in El Dorado
Been there, done that from coast to coast
I took shelter from the storm in California
Drank through every swinging door in Arizona
But hell, losing her's like trying to
Outrun the devil

It's like she knows where I lay my head
Cus every time I toss and turn over
There she is on her side of the bed
And I’m just pretending to hold her
Off the grid, just trying to lose her

I rolled them dice down in Reno, Nevada
Broke a wild horse down in Broken Saddle
Freewheeling anywhere the wind blows
I hid in the hills of Southern California
Took it easy down in Winslow, Arizona
But hell, losing her's like tryin' to
Outrun the devil

Outrun the devil

Thought a couple state lines and I’d forget
Just another town, another road
Still stuck in that goodbye kiss I don’t know how to let go

I been high as a cloud up in Colorado
Found a heart of gold in El Dorado
Been there, done that from coast to coast
I took shelter from the storm in California
Drank through every swinging door in Arizona
But hell, losing her's like trying to
Outrun the devil

Outrun the devil
