 Running from Someone
On the run like a shadow from the sun
Her chest waits for the bullet of a gun
The world's weight on her shoulders grows colder
The words burn her thoughts with every turn

Her own voice cheating, her heart quickly beating
She never saw blood flood in the streets so bleakly
The sky flashes clear as blades slash near
The laughter only brings her mind disaster

Her crimson feet stain the broken concrete
She screams at the dreams running in her head
The lonely daughter falls into the dark water
She believes she's better off dead

She's sinking farther, but where is Father?
He's drinking out with his friends
Where's his lover, where is Mother?
She's popping pills to play sad pretend

The girl inhales flames as her heart feels the pain
Barely screaming, always dreaming for life to end
Soon the darkness drowns out the sound
But a cold reminder quickly finds and confines her

Around her it's creeping, the blood still seeping
It clutches and crushes her like no one before
It kisses sweetly, its whispers settling deeply,
"You should have never been born"
