Must Run
Words coming at me like a hungry wolf, 
 They tear at me until I'm left Im wounded and hurt,
 I can fight this, 
 I take a swing but just,
 Fall weaker than before,
 This shouldn't hurt me,
 I'm strong! I tell myself.
 Useless.
 Like trying to talk to a deaf man,
 Like trying to change destiny,
 Like trying to outrun the storm. 
 The words tear at my every part,
 I collapse.
 Keep.
 Fighting.
 I picture myself succeeding in the least, I can defeat this beast,
 It's all in my head, wake up, wake up!
 They bite me as I rise, 
 Craving and yearning to take me apart just like the last victim,
 I can't decide which ones claw at my raw skin the most viciously, 
 Words bred from the people I trust?
 Words bred from the ones I always knew would release them against me?
 Ripped and crippled,
 I run,
 Run.
 They don't just let me escape, they're coming, 
 Fast.
 I'm faster.
 The pain of running hurts,
 But I refuse to be eaten alive,
 Viciously taken down.
 Never will I stop,
 I can do this,
 I can make it out of here.
