Intro: 
        



Running from the park
Sleeping out in the rain
From falling down the drain
Feeling drained from the main
Mutilated disease disaster deficient and dead
Raging waves with no name
Raining pain distorted face

                   
Placing blame, hyper-judging all the time
                                     
Lost my mind on the train, running from the insane
                                        
Children taught to blow their, brains out in the holy name
                                               
Running for fame where, everybody knows your name


Running the same vein empty
                    
shatters splattered nothing matters anyway, running for something to say

Looking for meaning the speech, running from a fray

Chorus:
                    
  It's the great escape
              
  Got to sneak away
                            
  When they look away we'll just fade away
                   
  Carry me in your memory
                  
  If I should pass away 
                     
  Before the break of day

   


                        
Like the light life happy clouds fluff
     
Hazy rice sunny days puff
                           
Fly a kite afraid to face the night
                
What if I can't make it right
          
The sword cuts both ways, night and day


Joy that goes away, things seem to sway
        
Nothing stays the same

Even in this madness we will survive

Even in this madness we will survive

Chorus


Running through the forest and I'm running through the woods
Running my whole life running like I should

Running for survival, running from the rifle

Running for the Bible blood libels and false idols


Craziness inside me
Afraid to pick through the bushes and see
Closed off bogged down reality
Bind barbed wire with no key

Running Running

Chorus
