Running From Myself

Just to run away from this agony, to
Leave, to crawl away, and just hide from this strife, to
Make a new identity, to start all over again, and to
Get away from this ****, this **** they call life…
Just to run away from all of my peers,
And to never look back, with a new life ahead,
To choke on my misery, to suck up my tears,
To hide in the night, with the moon blazing red.

Gotta run away, and never look behind,
Gotta straighten my priorities, and in those to find,
Something that has a meaning, none of this pointless ****,
Ill search. All my life. Even unto the crypt.
I’m just like a car, but without no fuel,
Running with no purpose, no motivation,
Running from the life which treated me so cruel,
Running from myself, my own creation.

I’m running from myself,
Got to be using all my stealth,
I Gotta get away from me,
Just to run away and flee.
I’m sick of who I created,
I made myself, who I’ve hated.
So I just wanna run away,
Just to go and leave to stay,

There’s nothing in life to look forward to,
I’m chased by my own beast, and I’m cornered too
Only if I can run, just to run away,
With nothing to deter me, to lead me astray,
Just to leave this all, going into a new being,
With nothing but bliss which I would be seeing.
Yeah right, but nothings that easy, and I’m here to stay,
And suffer the pain, ‘till my sanity gives way.

You can’t understand, no ones in the position that I’m in,
Not one has felt the anguish inside me,
The sphere of compressed pain I’ve kept within,
And now to release it all-pain to the hundredth degree.
I just want to go away from the person I made myself,
Just to sneak away, to escape, to run, even with little health,
I’m fighting the impossible, outnumbered ten to one,
So I’m left with one choice-just to let go and run.

I’m running from myself,
Got to be using all my stealth,
I Gotta get away from me,
Just to run away and flee.
I’m sick of who I created,
I made myself, who I have hated.
So I just wanna run away,
Just to go and leave to stay,
