Run Away
Whats this feeling I have deep down inside?
I get really angry,
then I get real sad.
Feelings of pain and sorrow,
fill me up till I explode.
Im so lost and forgotten,
confused of where to go.
And then I hear a voice,
run away little one,
run from the looks,
run from the pain,
run from the stares,
run from all who care,
run from this world,
run away little one.
I must be perfect,
put on a show,
can't have a flaw.
I try so hard to fit in,
but the more I try the farther I get.
I give so much,
but never get anything in return.
And then I hear a voice,
run away little one,
run from the looks,
run from the pain,
run from the stares,
run from all who care,
run from the world,
run little one.
I start to see life for what it really is,
the path leading me to hell.
Death seems so much easier now,
oh how I long for the emptiness.
I climb so high to the top of the cliff,
I look over the edge it seems so far,
I take a step to the side,
and as I fall to my death,
I hear a voice on the wind,
Run away little one,
run from the looks,
run from the pain,
from all the stares,
run from all who care,
From everything in the world,
Your finally free my little one.
