if i could take my wings and fly
i would soar up high high high
away away to another world
where hopes and dreams and futures unfurl

but running away won't ease the pain
got to struggle til we're slain
take courage in inadequacies
forget about the courtesies

drowning drowning it's not the end
can't pass it out, stay and defend
voice is muted, something trapped
defeat is yet to accept

so put on your shoes just run just run
fear, pain following, it's not done
please oh please let it be over soon
tonight, tonight beneath the dying moon
