How can I just sit and be
when all I want to do is flee?
How can I just sit and wait
when I don't believe in fate?
Jump out of my skin and run away;
I just can't seem to face today.
Everything moves so damn fast;
I can't keep up, I'll never last.
My tired legs grow weary, worn;
Running from this looming storm.
Where do I find the strength to go on?
I've lost track of all the miles I've gone.
I hear the ticking of the clock;
The banging of every tick and tock.
Reminding me of every foul and flop;
I guess it's time to just give up.
