Analysis of Running
Running is in your blood
every time things come about
your ready to go silent not one shout
cry a little and than all gone
running is in your blood
you feel it makes you stronger
it labels you much more as a coward
never face up to what's right
never put up a fight
not fore the things you love
nor the things you believe
enough is enough
when will your legs stop racing
so fast there's no tracing
so much hearts love for you
all you do is make them blue
not admitting your scared
starting over is easier
until the day you seek your truth
running will always be apart of you
and every time you find that one
your running has just begun
