Hanging by a thread as I play dead

Hanging by a thread and my mind is code red

Cut and run, try to hide, get away

Shut my eyes, just to hide from the fate

Cut and run, try to hide, get away

Cover up, get shelter from the hate

Demonized, liquified, tranquilized

Prophesied, just to hide from life

Night and day, led astray, in decay

Come what may, not to face that fight

Seething

Breathing

Nightmares grow

On I run

Still my shadows follow

Never can I stop ’cause they hunt me

Never can I stop ’cause the beast is hungry

Like a wolf on the hunt stalking prey

Closing in, no, it won’t let me be

Like a wolf on the hunt stalks a prey

Any cost, fulfill a destiny

Seething

Fast breathing

Nightmares grow

On I run

Still my shadows follow

On I run

But still my shadows follow

Cut and run, hide away from fate

Cover up, try to hide the hate

Like a wolf, it won’t let me be

Closing in, wish away, shut my eyes

Wish it away

Seething

Fast breathing

Nightmares grow

On I run

Still my shadows follow

Facing

My demons

Now I know

If I run

Still my shadows follow

I say “No!”

Still my shadows follow
