still running, running
running in the acid rain
running, running
running in the acid rain
so livid is my farthest sight
and my heart is filled up with much void
weeping as i cross those passing thoughts
but i'm trying to escape the remnants of the past
bearing my painted hopes
i wish i could reach the sky
praying in a certain form of remorse
but my prayer is like a dying song
seeing my black and blue skin
i think i'm afraid to heed
for a bruise may end up to another rendition
but my resounding cry won't end
still running in the acid rain
