Every street is like an alleyway Darker grays of the world color everything in this place The pain, rage, it's screaming through the house paint, the cement paved, it's strange A normal neighborhood it seems, hard to believe after What happened to me, still I'm strolling the way Thoughts rave, ruin the quiet, can't hear a thing, not a peep from the people around, is Anybody hear Cold shivers, my skin quiver, I feel the fear, ironic, because I was just demonic Was slitting throats in someone home a minute ago, now a stroll through the dark cold is Killing my soul Blood dripping from my clothes, each step bringing me close to the end Remember my story, it starts again and again, the clock gon tick forever, that's just how It is Still going to walk, I choose to live Together, just me and the quiet, all intimate with my thoughts as our kids, a family I never Meant The thick of it I'm in, no way that I could quit, I'm weathering the winds in hope that I can Win I know the chance slim but I'll attempt and lend my strength, while in the mix and grip not Life The sin I'm soiled in is rich, it's now up to my neck, I got to drown or swim, take a dive I slip behind the houses, over the fences into the woods, counting every second as it's Own blessing, I start doubting Shouting all in my head, "I maybe won't make it out", I'm broken, I will admit I look to the sky, I'm hooked by the lights, the stars, then went from calm to shook as a Helicopter flew by Right through the sky, this is my time, started chasing on foot, not thinking, just got to try Going Right Left Right Left RIGHT left Right Left RIGHT Left Right Left RIGHT Left Right Left Left foot, right foot, left Flying through the sky, my ticket to where I rest, my home For you I longed, so long, I got a chance, I'm taking it man Trusting my gut and listening Running through the mud, above the bird turns and burns fuel to advance, then it's gone With the wind I can't see defeat, I can't, just let it be with my death around the corner, I lean on what I Need Survival instinct take over, I let it lead, now my senses on ten, I'm taking in everything A smell hit my nose like burning wood, it stinks, it reeks but still I seem drawn to it, I Think Maybe it's calling to me, I follow crossing a creek, seeing smoke above the trees, I'm Running, sticks in my feet Hearing voices, I tiptoe behind a tree, take a peek See the whole town gathered watching a fire burn deep Right Left Right Left RIGHT left Right Left RIGHT Left Right Left RIGHT Left Right Left You never know never know never know when You'll only know only know only know in time You never know never know never know when You'll only know only know only know in time Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Left Right Hey Hey, hey buddy, hey snap out of it Oh I'm-I'm-I'm sorry I'm sorry, my fault my fault So, so what happened? Where did you go? I just um I kept running
