Stop running!
You're no longer being chased.
You chase yourself with shadow fears
Revenants from a time when your soul was not safe
And you ran and you ran and and you ran...
And guess what?
When you stopped, you were still there
Your carefully constructed mask is cracked
Through the peels your self is showing
The veneer at best needs restoration,
Better to let it dissipate
The upkeep only brings exhaustion
You are absolutely meant to be here
You chose this remember!
Now take your place and show your face
You are welcome in the world
You are safe

Stop running!
You're no longer being chased.
You chase yourself with shadow fears
Revenants from a time when your soul was not safe
And you ran and you ran and and you ran...
And guess what?
When you stopped, you were still there
Your carefully constructed mask is cracked
Through the peels your self is showing
The veneer at best needs restoration,
Better to let it dissipate
The upkeep only brings exhaustion
You are absolutely meant to be here
You chose this remember!
Now take your place and show your face
You are welcome in the world
You are safe
