I saw a man running.
From a failed proposal,
A man with a gun
A howling beast,
Or just for fun
To an interview,
An incredible sale
To catch a bus,
To drop some mail
To the finish line,
From a game of tag
To the airport with-
Stolen jewels in his bag
I saw a man running.
I could keep guessing,
But I knew just why
As he stared at me,
With regret in his eyes
No matter how hard,
He tried to break free
His crimes would forever-
Keep him company
So as he ran,
I chased just as fast
For he was a sinner,
And I was his Past.
