Running

by Luna518
I can dart from all my problems,

Hide away from all my fears

Demons that live inside of me

Careful ringing in my ears

I hear screams and cries within me

I see myself breaking, now I am lost

Trying to smile and make it better

But nothing will keep me from running

Running

Running

I can walk slowly if I want to

Think on how I’ve lived so far

“Put on you mask, and cover your ugly face,” they tell you

“No one wants to see those scars”

“Look at you, you think you’ll ever be enough?”

Voices in my head cut deep

Heart is tight, beating fast as if I was running

Nightmares as you’re sound asleep

They stay, as you keep on sleeping

Through the day, through the night

And it’s just another pointless fight

You can’t win

Just just keep running

Running

Running

You can never hide because they’re

Coming

Coming

Coming

I can hold on tight if I have to

Piece together my broken parts

Sprint away and don’t look back

You can find a brand new start

Storms clouds and sunshine

A new beginning

Monsters coming from the dark

Nothing will keep them away

They feed on my aching heart

Run

Before they find you
