Running from Myself
I feel trapped inside
I used to be able to glide
There is nowhere to hide
So many thought in my head
They begin to feel like lead
I will run around this track
That you call real life
I'm just running and running
What do we run for
Who do we all run from
No one will know who
I am running from myself
Running from my brain
Running from the thoughts
In my head that I can't control
