| [00:42] |
I ran from my house |
| [00:46] |
That cannot contain me |
| [00:50] |
From the man that I cannot keep |
| [00:56] |
From my mother who haunts me |
| [01:00] |
Even though she's gone |
| [01:03] |
From my daughter that never sleeps |
| [01:11] |
I ran from the noise and the silence |
| [01:17] |
From the traffic on the streets |
| [01:38] |
I ran to the treetops |
| [01:41] |
I ran to the sky |
| [01:45] |
out to the lake |
| [01:48] |
into the rain |
| [01:51] |
that matted my hair |
| [01:54] |
And soaked my shoes and skin |
| [01:58] |
Hid my tears, hid my fears |
| [02:18] |
I ran to the forest |
| [02:21] |
I ran to the trees |
| [02:24] |
I ran and ran |
| [02:28] |
I was looking for me |
| [02:39] |
I ran past the churches |
| [02:42] |
And the crooked old mailbox |
| [02:46] |
Past the apple orchards |
| [02:49] |
And the lady that never talks |
| [02:53] |
Up into the hills |
| [02:56] |
I ran to the cemetery |
| [03:00] |
And held my breath |
| [03:04] |
And thought about your death |
| [03:13] |
I ran to the lake |
| [03:17] |
Up into the hills |
| [03:20] |
I ran and I ran |
| [03:23] |
I'm looking there still |
| [03:28] |
And I saw the crumbling tombstones |
| [03:35] |
The forgotten names |
| [03:41] |
I tasted the rain |
| [03:44] |
I tasted my tears |
| [03:48] |
I cursed the angels |
| [03:51] |
I tasted my fears |
| [03:59] |
And the ground gave way beneath my feet |
| [04:04] |
And the earth took me in her arms |
| [04:11] |
Leaves covered my face |
| [04:14] |
Ants marched across my back |
| [04:19] |
The black sky opened up |
| [04:23] |
Blinding me |
| [04:31] |
I ran to the forest |
| [04:34] |
I ran to the trees |
| [04:38] |
I ran and I ran |
| [04:41] |
I was looking for me |
| [04:45] |
I ran to the lakes |
| [04:48] |
And up to the hill |
| [04:52] |
I ran and I ran |
| [04:56] |
I'm looking there still |
| [05:01] |
And I smelt her burning flesh |
| [05:05] |
Her rotting bones |
| [05:08] |
Her decay |
| [05:11] |
I ran and I ran |
| [05:16] |
I'm still running today |
