Run
Run from the pain
Run far away
Farther than before
Run from the hurt
Run from the inside
Because you can't take much more
Running from the truth
Running towards the abuse
Buried under the dirt
Turning away, turning away
Slipping through the days
Fading away, fading away
Because everything is burnt and gone
Run for your life
Run for what is left
Run away, from the start
Run from you life
Run for what is gone
Run away from the heart
