CAN'T RUN AWAY

DAYS OF FREEDOM

So often we want to run back into the arms of our childhood,
away from this life which us so harsh and rude,
we long for the days we were wild and free,
but that's not the way it is meant to be.

Running to drugs is not the answer,
it simply binds us to another master,
we need a break to get some distance,
find some time to explore our existence.

We don't have to rush along with life,
involve ourselves in the fights and strife,
we can take a breather and step aside,
take it easy in a slower ride.

We don't have to prove ourselves to anyone,
just need to be true and have some fun,
learn to turn what's bad into good,
and use the experiences for mental food.
