The Runaway
The streets are silent as I walk
Listening to the midnight talk
My sneakers fall on broken glass
Scattered shards, just like my past
In their houses, they sleep unknowing
Above the trees the light is growing
In the sky there is no moon
It will be daylight pretty soon
Only darkness feels my pain
In the sun I can’t remain
No, in the daylight I can’t stay
Because I am
