On the surface, all typical answers, Stay in shape, and keep the weight off, I enjoy, and love the competitive spirit, I want to beat you at the finish line, and then shake your hand, I want to be your friend and wish you good luck I want to stand next to you on the podium But I run deep, I run because I have to replenish the blood loss, From the heart I keep cutting open, I run because I hurt you, I run because I broke so many promises, I run from a past which haunts me, I run like the wind needing to escape, I run for my future, I run for my life Firewalker

Why do I run?
On the surface, all typical answers, Stay in shape, and keep the weight off, I enjoy, and love the competitive spirit, I want to beat you at the finish line, and then shake your hand, I want to be your friend and wish you good luck I want to stand next to you on the podium But I run deep, I run because I have to replenish the blood loss, From the heart I keep cutting open, I run because I hurt you, I run because I broke so many promises, I run from a past which haunts me, I run like the wind needing to escape, I run for my future, I run for my life Firewalker
