Run

[TKei]

In the blink of an eye
A short life goes by.
With the flick of a wrist
A hand becomes a fist.
As the blood falls down
To return to the ground,
I raise this fist to the sky
To signal the time.

The time to run away
From this loaded gun
The time to escape
From those we now shun
A fire burns to gives us light
The fog clears to give us sight
We'll get away from here
If we show no fear.

A thousand miles apart
This train shall now depart.
Halfway there or halfway gone
Either way the train spurs on.
A hundred more
And we open the door.
Sixty down and in the clear
Forty more for all our tears.

I say "One, let's stand up"
You say "Two, prepare to jump"
We say "Three, now break free"
Jump right off, run to the trees.

Now we're on our own
The world is our home

We cannot return, for fear of our lives.
Even here, I see the anger in their eyes.
Don't give them a chance, they won't hesitate.
Show them your face, they'll show you your fate.

It's time to restart
And pour out our hearts

Beyond this night
Is the rest of our lives.
