running through the city
meditating on my sins
strolling through the graveyard
slipping off and old skin
climbing on the stage
with a flagpole through my heart
travelled a long way
promised myself today
that i'm never going back
put your memory on hold
things can never be retold
some are hushed, some are wiped
off the table out of sight
catch the next day in its rush
a new escape, a final crush
the hour's long
the past is gone
and it ain't never coming back
dreaming of the mountains
meditating on my griefs
running from the schoolyard
hiding like a weary thief
rattling my cage
moaning with all my heart and soul
let's keep this rolling
running through the city
running from where i've been
hiding in the graveyard
digging deep, hammering
on a truth, plain to see
i go blind
leave you behind
and i'm never coming back
