ive been running
for as long as
ive been breathing air
ive been running
to find what is possible
to douse my fires blazing in my eyes
to pull the sword
from my killing bleeding hands

the damage i have caused
is the madness
by nailing my hands
to the cross
ive dragged my soul
through your city of scrutiny
while you watched
and you laughed
you laughed
at my pain

i wonder if i will finish?
if i can abide by these flaws?
if the values become impossible
for even me to insult
then i will fall on my face
and you can kick me into the teeth
and say i told you so
and say i couldnt even finish the race

i will run
until these killing thoughts ebb
when the uncut version of my life is trough
and perhaps you will see
that i was right all along
and that blown up ego
that blown up ego is like icing on the cake

i wonder if i will finish?
if i can abide by these terrible laws?
if the values become impossible
for even me to insult
but if i finish the race
and i cross the line
ill know that
ive won the greatest prize
the right to tell the world to
fuck right off

im running
ive crossed the line into heaven
im running
ive crossed the line from hell
im running
ive crossed the line its so beautiful
im running
ive crossed the line ive crossed the line
im running
ive crossed the line into heaven
im running
ive crossed the line from this earth
im running
ive crossed the line its so beautiful
im running
ive crossed the line ive crossed the line
