He's Running (Away)

from He's Running (Away) by Kai McGee

lyrics

A ghost, he sees
A distant liar dead
Making small talk with himself
His own company is all he's ever had

Bridges burn, faces torn
And his body is cadaverous
He's an avarice of memories forlorn
And he wants it all to end

He makes a shallow cut
And watches his blood run
His legs refuse to move, now
But he'll be damned if something doesn't run

He opens up his eyes
The window's staring back at him

Blinded by the carnage of his thoughts
His vision turns to rust
Haunted by the past that does elude him
He's unsure of what to trust

So many then have failed him
So much that he had lost
The ones who had assailed him
For their work, he's made to pay the cost

He's running from himself
He's bleeding himself dry
He's running for his life, from his life
Just hoping that he'll die
