This song / poem is about a friend. She’s a real sweet girl, but ended up choosing other guys who were abusive. We came close to going out as a couple many times, but it never happened. We’re still friends, but I can tell that she’s been abused by men and is walking on egg shells. I’ve learned from books and experience that abusive women tend to keep going out with abusive men. My friend finally woke up, yea. This composition is about what I felt from her and a little of how I felt at the time.
Run Away From That
you can hide from those
in a forest
you can run from them
in a desert
but you can’t hold back the truth
of the survivor of the fittest
the young, the wealthiest
the love, the hate
the fear, the anger
you know you’d run away from that
you can’t hold back the tears
with the anger
that possesses your soul
you can’t hold back the hate
there is for man
wisdom comes and goes
when you can’t taste the good it does
you runaway and hide
it possesses you, it controls you
and still you live by it
and pretend its ok
but you can’t hold back the truth
about the survivor of the fittest
look up from the floor
and ask yourself why?
like the black cat
that has no family
like a flying bat
that crashes and waits to die
escape the light
and run away into the night
you know you’d run away from that
you can’t hold back the tears
with the anger you’ve set for fate
it possesses your soul
you can’t hold back the hate
there is for man
please don’t give me the blame
you know you would run away from that
but you can’t hold back the truth
of the survivor of the fittest
the young, the wealthiest
the love, the hate
the fear, the anger
you know you’d run away from that
you can’t hold back the tears
with the anger
that possesses your soul
you can’t hold back the hate
there is for man
you can’t hold back the tears
with the anger
that possesses your soul
you can’t hold back the hate
you know you love to hate
you can’t hold back the tears
with the anger
that possesses your soul
you can’t hold back the hate
you know you love to hate
you know you would run away from that
