Running

You wear with you a smile, so beautiful and pure
You’re walking by in strides, my pain you are the cure
You’re scared and broken down, alone and by yourself
You fight the endless waves, you’re screaming out for help

Your life is taking chances, and never looking back
Running towards the sunset, despite how they react
You speak to me in riddles, I write to you in rhymes
You place your heart before me, I tell you in good time

I’m running from the reason, that’s kept me in this place
I still look in the mirror, seeing only pain disgrace
I’ll tell you now I’m broken, I’ll never be okay
My words have now been spoken, tomorrow’s another day

These songs are my emotions, there screaming out my hate
The sad songs only remind me, that pain is not my fate
I look to you with promise, and cherish your gentle touch
I hate the way I feel inside, I need you now so much.

She took with her my heart; I want to get it back
I realize now I’ve fallen, my life has run off track
I’m running towards the sunset, I’m never looking back
There is no place for me right now; I wish this was an act.

The storms are fading now, the sun is peaking through.
My past has haunted me but still I now have you.
You eyes have offered me the peace of mind I need
Your words have given me the strength to finally breathe

This world I give to you, please take it in your hand
Hold it closer to your heart before it slips like sand
In time the lives we choose to lead will once again collide.
For now I’m only waiting for our chance to feel alive.
