Running
I run wild
I run and run
Until I no longer see the past
So dark
So troublesome
Maybe this is why I lie
I lie because I can feel
I can't think
I can't think
I can't think
Lying has become a bad habit of mine
Almost as bad
As my desire
My desire to not think
To not feel
To not be here
But I must keep going
I must keep running
I must keep running!
When I stop running it will all be over
Maybe it won't
Who knows
I just keep running
Its all I can focus on
One step there
One step here
Left right
Left right
Left right
Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out
I've been running constantly
Maybe it's time I face my fears?
No
I mustn't face my fears
I must keep running
And so I run
