Restart
I am running…
My heart beats fiercely in my ear,
Sweat falls from my face,
Have to escape this fear,
Have to escape this place,
I don't know where I am running,
I just have to get away,
Tears make my vision blurry,
Nothing is okay,
Leaving the past behind me,
I am running…
Leaving emotion behind,
Escaping the tragedy,
Erasing the thoughts in my mind,
I will finally be free,
I will no longer fake the smile,
I have learned to act so well,
No one could see the tears I cry,
But I no longer dwell,
I will no longer live that lie,
I am running…
From the graves in my nightmares,
That come true,
Everyone stands still, no one cares,
The shadow I escape to,
My heart slows to a steady beat,
As I hear your footsteps running after me,
You climbed the walls that guard my heart,
My tears you finally see,
You speak two words---lets restart….
I am running…
An you are there beside me,
Together we will defeat pain,
Together we will break free,
Together we will forever be.
