Would you watch my game?
Would you know the pain?
Did I do something wrong?
Or am I in the wrong platform?

Now watch what happened
The game
It started

Run!
Faster!
Run Faster!
Run!
they shout
again and again
no time to breath
no time to think
just do what they say
or you'll lose the game
and I did
no questions
all my life

don't look back!
and I did
Afraid to be caught
Afraid to be chased
Afraid that what's ever behind
will finally picked up their pace

focus on the goal
Ignore!
They shout
the pain
the sweat
it's part of the game

ringing
ringing
what's that?
oh my body collapsed
from my feet
my head
pain from the impact
fallen
in the path

Silence
their mouth is moving
yet I can't hear their shouting
frozen

just finished it
In the end
there's the line
To put you at rest

Stop you missed something
Did you notice some things?
Rewind
Don't be blind

Breath
I forgot to breath
It's what I need
You're too loud
I can't think

Think
I got no time to think
Thoughts haven't been sink
Too loud
What did they say?

What they say
I followed them all the way
Not asking why
Why?

A Question
Now I have
Why...
am I running all my life?

All my life
Just running
It's like I'm trapped
Can't look back

Look back
It's what I have past
From the beginning
What's ever behind

What's ever behind
So many
Like fish in the sea
I don't need to run from them

Them
Is what I am
They just don't want it to be
But I'm free
Finally

Finally
That's what you missed
Just a glimpse
It's all I need

The goal
Is to ignore
Ignore the shout
It hurts
It pains

Pain
Wounds I didn't know I have
Slashes and stabs
It made me collapse

Collapse
All that I've past
Also stop
in the path

Path
That I run
Is all the feelings I left behind
I feel them now
Hear them
As everything goes silent

Silence
My ear I shut them
Feet swollen
As what I started
is completely finished

Finished
I'm done
I put an end
to the marathon
that I left
As I start to rest
