Running
I'm running down the street
Beating on doors looking for a light to keep
Leaping over step delving into starless depths
Sleeping on these front yard silhouettes
Black blades of grass take baths on regret
So I chose to have slept
On the cold concrete I set

Cause I'm sailing
Sailing down the roaring purple sea
Dreams drop drops of air and I breath
It seems difficult to scream
Thunder and lightning are
Deafening and blinding
And I am drowning but my ship is okay

Cause I'm soaring
Soaring through nebulas quasars through stars
Old scars burn
But space is so cold they freeze
And the darkness gently consumes me
Floating never ending, hard to find, hard to grasp
And I'm afraid that I'll be last
To find the thing I so desire
I feel entrapped by burining wires
And I believe that I'm a lair to myself

Cause I'm standing
I'm standing in front of your home
The windows glow and I know
Beyond this warm door sleeps you
The one wearing red out of blue
The one that connects with my soul
The reason I started to go
So I raising my hand and I knock
I just hope to hear the door... Unlock
