Backlit

Where would you run, failed by shaking legs
Green grass and shallow breath held
Ear to ear, flight or fear
What’s in a name? What does that paper trail really say?
Keep digging down deeper, until the sky starts to fade
Backlit in back rooms like a stage
Lost from the start
Failed by the facts
You walk in defeated
Wear out your weaknesses
Lost from the start
Failed by the facts
Walk in defeated
Wear all your weaknesses
