lyrics

The walls are closing in
The air is too thick to breathe
Feel your instinct kicking in
Hear your guts telling you to leave

The walls are closing in
You’ve got to get away
From this place of misery
That kept your dreams at bay

Feel your instinct kicking in
Sweat running down your spine
Shivers running on your skin
The fog that clouds your mind (bis)
Is finally lifting

So, you run from your life
Trying to believe their lives
Yes, you run, towards the sun
Yet you can’t outrun yourself

The air’s too thick to breathe
Your flesh is getting weak
Amidst the grinding teeth
You find the strength to speak
“Why won’t you let me be?”

So, you run, from their hate
Trying to emancipate
Yes, you run towards the sun
And the hour is running late

Spend all your life
Inside their maze
Of blinding light
Ten thousand days
Of grief and strife
To let your dreams take flight

Still you run for your life
Trying to escape your fate
Yes, you run towards the sun
Your destiny awaits
Still you run for your life
Trying to escape your fate
Yes, you run towards the sun
Your destiny awaits
