Running
We’re Running through the shadowed streets,
We hide ourselves, we are discrete,
The truth within, suppressed without,
We bide our time, try not to shout,
We walk the path, that leads nowhere,
And what we seek, is never there…
Come walk with us and see our lives,
Internally torn, self loathing thrives,
We’d end all the pain, if we could,
We’re running now, for others good.
(We’re running now, for others good.)
So don’t be odd, and don’t be queer,
Detections threat, its ever near,
Oppress yourself, embrace falsehood,
Keep running now, for others good.
(Keep running now, for others good)
So others live their normal lives,
And day by day our souls, they die,
We never feel the way we should,
Still running now, for others good.
(Still running now, for others good)
Alas someday, our sprint will tire,
Our lives we burn in falsehoods fire,
And then we realize that we should,
Stop running now for our own good.
(Stop running now for our own good)
We do not run, and do not hide,
For this is us, the truth inside,
Our freedom now, feels as it should,
We live our lives for our own good.
(We live our lives for our own good)
