Trapped within the city’s limits.
Bound to nothing at all.
A shitty job
A desolate sunrise
There is hope just above the overcast
An infinite climb
Perhaps.
It’s been so long.
Opportunity…
A chance to lose your mind.
You’ve already lost everything else.
All your friends are just beyond the finish line
This is your race
And no one’s taught you how to keep pace
And no one’s told you what this all leads up to
But you run and you run
You’re always five minutes too late
Or wearing the wrong shoes
Or going the wrong way
But you run and you run
Underneath the frozen sun
From debts
From failures
From yourself
But you can’t quite evade your own shadow
And you can’t quite break the shell
So you run and you run
To keep the fire going
