"The Runner" - by Atlas Weber
"A man is nothing without passion
or he'll watch all his minutes pass him
Oligarchs and thieves and cowards
may hold all the precious power
Break the back of every man
Take away all of your helping hands
This ol' world's not all I dreamed of
I would die without your sweet love
CHORUS:
In my dreams, I can run
In my dreams, I can run
If you saw me, it'd astound you
I will throw my arms around you
Maybe we can catch the sun
In my dreams I can run
Lord I hope that hell don't want me
'Cause all these demons seem to haunt me
But I tried and tried as I knew how
To find the meaning past the here and now
There's a blackness in that sky tonight
Clouds will hide behind the moon in fright
As I fell into the midnight glare
How your light lit up the dark air"
