Run, Run, Run.

Like a cold corpse on the road

and the dust underneath no one had known, 

I watched as you had grown

and I stayed alone. 

For a quiet circus sending vibrations low, 

we made a city crush to the bone

with dreams only you honed 

and I stayed alone. 

As a skilled, wise bird would do, 

I let go of you. 

As a python on a hunger strike, 

I bore pain with might. 

But as a kid looking for love, 

All I did was run.

Run, run, run. 

Like the back of your hand, you knew me. 

Standing behind your mirrors, beaming. 

I watched as you took the winning, 

and I stayed lost. 

It was like running through water, truly. 

All the efforts I made went in vain and like a movie 

scene, you'd come up to me with an apology 

but I stayed lost. 

As a skilled wise bird would do, 

I let go of you. 

As a python on a hunger strike, 

I bore pain with might. 

But as a kid looking for love, 

All I did was run.

Run, run, run. 

Oh, to be young and struck by thunder like me. 

Oh, to always hope, want and sink to believe. 

Oh, to be the sidelined, jailed child nobody sees. 

Run, run, run.
