Run Away

It's like you want me to leave, all these codes and secrets that you pass through our rare conversations.
You held me closer last night, tighter. You whispered 'Run Away.'
Is that what you want from me Si? To be a coward I'm not fearful of the side of you that you try so hard to hide.
I am not fearful of the guns or the red dot that shined in my eye as I ran in front of you.
I'm not fearful that you have started drugs again, I'm not fearful of the one bullet in your gun.
I don't mind police sirens anymore.
I don't mind visiting my freshly flowered grave.
I don't mind not feeling the sun.
I don't mind reading my name in cursive writing.
What I do mind is your pain, our friends pain.
Simon Minter if I ran away I wouldn't of been there when the car door wouldn't open and the policeman got a shot.
