Run

I needed to run
As fast as I could
For all of the people
Who tried to interact with me
About how fucked up my body was
How it seems that I was not eating enough
Felt to my knees when I heard what they said
Things that were true, things that were false
Thing that made me insecure or things that made me love myself
Asked polite if that could stop
Didn't listen tho just said eat more stuff

You took my self love
I didn't get a change to say I knew
I wasn't eating enough
But I kept running away from you
You were there to take me down
You did at first
Until I was running away from you

Run, running to the church
Pray to Jesus
Problem solver, people pleaser
Wishing for peace
I just wanna stop thinking about run
People pleaser wishing for peace
Peace is what I'm wishing for
Stop being mean about it
Stop being mean

So I changed myself for you
Did a lot of sports
I was eating less
Every time trowing up
I'm feeling like a broken down brick
With no escapes
Run was all I could do
A sinking ship is stabler than me

You took my self love
I didn't get a change to say I knew
I wasn't eating enough
But I kept running away from you
You were there to take me down
You did at first
Until I was running away from you
Run, running to the church

Pray to Jesus
Problem solver, people pleaser
Wishing for peace
I just wanna stop thinking about run
People pleaser wishing for peace
Peace is what I'm wishing for
Stop being mean about it
Stop being mean

My innocence gone
You took my wall and destroy it
Made scares on my skin
Thinner than the most thinnest glass
Eating was always a problem
Accepted it, want to go further with my life

You took my self love
I didn't get a change to say I knew
I wasn't eating enough
But I kept running away from you
You were there to take me down
You did at first
Until I was running away from you

Depth of darkness, I run
Reclaiming my worth, finding peace at my core
Through the battles and the tears I've shed
Lived on the edge of life, where I've bled

Now I break free from the chains that once held me down
I wear my scars as a warrior's crown
In the silence of night, where my soul is restored
I'll face the shadows, find the light, and move forward

Innocence is gone
Still be willing to run away from you
Accepted the past
People pleaser wishing for peace
Don't wanna think about the word
RUN
