Some say
That running is
For scared people

But I don't think they know
What it feels like when you go
As fast as you can

The wind whips your cheeks
And you forget about your week
Where nothing went right

You're breathing hard
Your heart was scarred
But now you can't feel it

So you go faster
In the hopes to master
The power behind your legs

It's become a task
How long will you last
Before you have to stop?

The pain comes back
Your face goes slack
And your breathing regulates

You feel the hurt
It's the sweat on your shirt
And so you go to change

You weren't scared
You only cared
To go and stretch your legs

They don't have to know they're right
