that someone is me

I'm running from someone
I don't know who it is
But I can feel their presence
I can feel their grip

I don't know what they want
But I know I can't stay
I have to keep moving
I have to find my way

I'm running from someone, I'm running from you
I don't want to deal with the pain and the truth
I just want to be free and find my own way
I'm running from someone, I won't let you stay
I'm running from someone and that someone is me

I can feel you getting closer
I can hear your footsteps on the ground
I don't want to face you, I don't want to stay
I just want to keep on running, far away

I've been hiding in the shadows
I've been trying to escape your grasp
I don't want to feel trapped, I don't want to give in
I just want to keep on running, far from within

I'm running from someone, I'm running from you
I don't want to deal with the pain and the truth
I just want to be free and find my own way
I'm running from someone, I won't let you stay

I'm running from the past
The memories that haunt me
I'm running from the pain
The fear that consumes me
I'm running from the doubts
The insecurities that bind me
I'm running from the loneliness
That fills my heart and mind

I don't know where I'm going I just know I can't stay I'm running from the darkness Trying to find my way I'm searching for the light That will guide me through the night I'm running, I'm running Toward a brighter tomorrow

I'm running, running, running I can't stop, I won't stop I'm running, running, running I won't let them catch me
