escape

i'll run so far away from here
leave this town behind
leave behind my life
i will run with the hope that maybe
if i can run fast enough
i can outrun myself
leave my body behind
leave behind my face
i can get ahead of myself and leave me behind
start choking on dust stumbling over my own trail
i just want to escape
to get away from myself
to get away from it all
and to sleep forever
to sleep without dreaming
to sleep in perfect black
