Running Scared!
I grieve to run from the man with the gun but I must.
I guess I just figure he's to light on that trigger to trust.
He wouldn't think twice in fact he'd rather rejoice to shoot me
So I'd sooner take flight, scoot off into the night to be free.
Who is this guy who would see me die? I'm not sure!
But while he's around I will be underground, insecure!
I just know that I think that there is a real link and he's wise.
And he knows what I took he could see by the look in my eyes.
He was engrossed in the thrill as he fed on his **** in the park.
And he couldn't see me standing behind that tree in the dark.
When my camera did flash I then made a mad dash to the rear.
Out of harms way is where I want to stay, not in fear.
It was my big mistake to take a picture and break for the run.
I can't ever be free for he's following me with a gun.
Something that I must face is I am now in the race of my life.
With a picture, that failed I cannot get him jailed, now that's strife.
For my chaser don't know and he won't let me go, it's his new thrill.
For the Reaper you see is coming for me and will ****.
So I run and I run from the man with the gun aimed at me.
I will bob and I'll weave, there's no place I won't leave to be free.
To avoid an attack I'll grow eyes in the back of my head.
But I can settle nowhere because I do not care to be dead.
I know he wouldn't listen even with my admission of no proof.
He would still load that lead into the back of my head, that's the truth!
