Running, running
Away from our fears
Our loves
And everything ,
Everything we know
We keep going
Loosing our way
But we keep going
We aimlessly search for things we’ll never find
And trying to get to places we’ll never reach
But we keep telling our selves to go for the impossible
But then we stop…
We stop and wonder how much we’ll miss
How much we’ll miss if we keep going
And then we realize
That the point of wondering comes…
when you think you’ve gone to far
