I can run,
I can hide,
I can keep a smile on my face
And make it seem like I'm alive,

But there is a truth.

No matter how far I travel about,
No matter how obscure I can become,
No matter how convincing my smile,
And make it seem I'm marching on to the beat of my own drum,

I cannot run from the truth.
Quite simply because it is a part of me.
It nuzzles itself into the deepest of my soul,
Darkening my world and locking me in.
