Runner's Body

You found a line out while we all watched dumbfounded
Was there a time when you had your life before the lay?
Was there a time when you thought you’d bend but never break?
It’s not an excuse, it’s not the way that you convey
It’s the bones in your body — the way that you have said I’m fine for fleeing
now
You found it, your life long province
The wasted years on us reflect the disconnect between
You can’t defend it because you know that I know you
You know that I’ve always considered you my blood
Greyscale today when you’ve always painted purpose, when you always stood with
poise
Skins falling off the wolf — the skins falling off
You grab back, you barely made it out
Turn face, can’t stand to hear the shout
You found a line out while we all watch dumbfounded
The wasted years on us reflect the disconnect between
You can’t defend it because you know that I’ve always considered you my blood
They’re your flaws you made
You persist in only external blame
You admit to breaking away
