Collapse

I'm running from myself,
escaping my past.
It's gaining on me,
it's coming up fast.

Looking back now,
all things that I have done.
I have no choice,
I have to run.

I found the light,
I've changed my ways,
but still I am judged
for my actions in the old days.

I'm going insane-
I'm about to relapse-
All the work I put in-
...is about to collapse.

My mind is cramped.
I need to get out.
Someone help me.
Can no one hear me shout?

I'm growing tired-
my feet can't fail me,
for if they do,
I'll go crazy!

Running from the past,
this race can not be won.
I want it to be over.
