If I Could Just Run...

That feeling is returning... I need to run... If I could just run... It would all fall away... I would leave it in the grass, racing by beneath my pounding feet. If I could just run... In the dead quiet of the night, In the music of the storm, In the beauty of the dawn, Then it would all fall away... I could bury it behind me... If I could just run... My hair flying, The wind rushing past my face, Everything would be ok... If I could just run. But I can't... I have to stay, And deal with the pain That sears away at my insides I have to stay, And look the people in eye And not let them know I need to run... If I could just run... Away from the people Surrounding me, Suffocating me, If I could just run... I would dissapear into the woods And run until I couldn't any more. If I could just run... Away from life, And the cards I've been delt. 'Cause it's a pretty bad hand. If I could just run... Then everything would be ok It would fall into place, And the tangled cobwebs of my life Would sort themselves out As I listened to the sound of my feet Taking me away from it all. If I could just run...Sometimes I just need to excape into the woods to think a while, sometimes I just need a run to get a little of it out...But I can't leave it all behind...As far as I run away, I always run back.
