The Runner
By
Robert Lee King
[VERSE]
Alone in the
dark, he's just playing a part
His role in
this life, still unknown
Walking and
talking, in words odd and mocking
The shadows
won't leave him alone
He moves
through life, no end in sight…
[CHORUS]
He's the
runner, yeah, the runner
[VERSE]
Looking toward
darkness, yes that's where his heart is
Searching for
love all alone
His dreams
they are nightmares, beast waiting down stairs
He'd run but
there's no place to go
No place, is
home, he's all alone
[CHORUS]
For the
runner, yeah, the runner
[VERSE]
Moving through
life, too weary to fight
His hear now
is cold as a stone
Still running
today, just can't get away
No grave lies
in wait for his bones
He's all alone
[CHORUS]
He's the
runner, yeah, the runner
