Race of Mind

Run run racing mind chance me off a cliff Chase me catch me before I fall Tumble stumble my mind says it all Scrap stab shot and burn some pains give a lesson to learn Slander me belittle me a pain i pretend to endure The wounds in my back my heal but the words won't I assure Run run chase me catch me if you dare But everytime I look back there is nothing there Sprint dash on the cliff at last Rocks below in I go to escape the words of the past Haunting and taunting everything I do Laughing and lashing both sound like whips If i could swim I'd have a hope If I make it back from this i shall buy a rope There's be no point in running if my feet can't reach the ground Fair well memories sweet dreams to the painful neverending voice I smile as I feel water fill my lungs while I drown For i know in my heart life was not my choice
