Escape
Run from anything
Anything causing pain
Take off at break-neck speeds
Just go
Find an escape
I need out
Away from here
I need to see
Exactly where it lies
My destiny
I need an escape
When I was young
I ran from pain
Anything causing distress
Run away from home
I'd eventually be found
Sometimes I'd return on my own
I wasn't allowed an escape
Now I run freely
Feet pounding the pavement
Running half marathons
This time
I'm allowed to run
I'm allowed that escape
I need to see
Where I belong
Outside of hurt
I need my freedom
Breaking down in tears
I run
For my escape
Running is my escape
