Run

[Var† 0]

RUN:

When are you done just running from the pain

So far away that nothing will remain?

Turns out that pains like that

Dwell so deep inside

You can’t escape them anywhere

Cause it’s in you that they hide

 

I for one am done with life

If all it will bring

Is only death to believe

Will stop the painful sting

I’m desperate for something far greater

A higher power that’ll never waver

 

But something tells me I can’t find that inside the coffin of lies I call a heart

All I know for a fact is any moment now I’ll tear myself apart

 

(Chorus)

I take wing with the very thing I’m running from

It’s so skilled at stealth I can’t tell

That’s been here all along

I need a reality that’s not travesty

Something I can feel

I need someone to call upon

When nothing seems real

(End Chorus)

As I burst through the tree-line

A thought comes to mind

That I am as far along as I supposed

I’m actually far behind

Deep inside my mind I know that this is true

That my ‘guilty sins’ are my closest friends and there’s nothing I can do

 

That is why I’m so desperate

For something more concrete and set

But without out that I know that I am through

 

When I am at a point where screaming for help is the only option

I know I’ll try anything, but I know I can’t make another bad decision

 

(Chorus)

(End Chorus)

 

So far down the line

What I used to think was perverse

Is the only thing that I seem to find

That ever seems to work

 

What I once disgusted I revel in

Never thought I’d be confused in sin

But I’m guessing that’s just showing me

How much I need you in

 

I never feel like I understand everything completely

But I know I will never find complete certainty

But faith seems close enough

And I’m so deep in the mud

That I can’t do anything but reach for it because

 

(Chorus)

(End Chorus)
