RUNNING IN PLACE

Shit How do you tell someone you love that you can’t stand to be alive? There is no point in living when the fire in you dies I wish that you could see the pain when you look in my eyes But lately I just smile it off and put on my disguise Everyday I wonder if today will be the day Soon I’ll fade away, nothing’s enough to make me stay I can’t feel a thing and it’s just killing me, I lay Wide awake at night hoping I’ll find the words to say Exactly how I feel but not a word comes to mind It all goes blank and all that comes out is “I’m fine” I know that that’s a lie, I’m just a coward’s what I find I don’t know how to leave or how to leave it all behind It hurts deep in my soul but I don’t ever let it show Still in the same place, feels like I never grow I don’t care for the future when in fact I’ll never know All I know’s today but today it still hurts so Your tears won’t make me stay when it takes mine to make me go I waste a lot of time pretending I don’t feel alone Lived in all these houses and I still don’t feel at home Ain’t nowhere to run when all the problems in my dome I keep running, keep running, keep running away Seems nothing, seems nothing, seems nothing’ll change I keep running, keep running, keep running away I’ve become, I’ve become, I’ve become what I hate (Don’t keep running!) Away, away, away (Don’t keep running!) Away, away, away I keep running away to keep running in place I keep running away I keep running away to keep running in place To keep running in place
