I want to run so fast,
so fast that the monsters wouldn't catch me,
and their faces will just be a blur,
and the wind will wipe my tears away
and my heart will beat really fast,
but at least I know I'm alive

I know that stopping means death,
because their claws are always reaching for me,
and looking back will be a mistake,
because their sinister smiles will be waiting
and the darkness will engulf me

I feel like it's a race
to see if I reach my goal,
but I'm getting tired,
and I need to breathe,
but I know that if I stop
the monsters will swallow me alive
I'm just scared to see their faces,
because it's like looking at a mirror.
