Where do you find the will to survive?
When all you wanna do is run away fast.
All you see in front of you is fatal terrain.
How much can one person take,
Before it will drive them insane?
Run away, run away, run away fast.
Fear of the known, fear of the unknown,
Too much to deal with, driving me insane,
Demands come from everywhere,
It’s more than one person can take.
Run away, run away, run away fast.
Extending limits beyond one’s imagination,
Ability to bare, unbearable limits,
Seeing the torment in a loved ones face,
Days no longer exist, it’s moment by moment.
So where is it that you find the will to survive,
When you see your loved one tormented by the unknown,
Knowing that it will happen yet no control over when,
Seeing it in there eyes, hearing it in their voice,
Get it over with, over with, over with fast.
