Trying to escape the ghost that haunt
I run, but shadows follow, taunt
From all the pain that I've known
Futility grips, a heart turns to stone
I'm chasing freedom, but it's hard to find
A fleeting dream that leaves me behind
The pain I've known, clings to me
A heavy burden that refuses to be free
I run day and night, a desperate cry
But anguish keeps pace, a sorrowful sigh
No matter how far I flee, it stays
A constant echo that refuses to fade
I run through darkness, searching for light
But fear and doubt, they haunt my night
No matter how fast I run, I'm still the same
A heart weighed down, a soul in pain
