Practicing Freedom -

this city haunts me

try to get out

too many broken hearts live here

bad memories line me

strengthen my bones

this place I still call my home

kept from your evening

I’m running

look who sacrificed everything

it is my pleasure to be alone

pretending

concealing

eliminating

rearranging

I don’t live here anymore

too many faces

remind me of what

I wish I could leave behind me

all of those faces

once my old friends

no harm was meant but I’m running

kept from your evening

I’m running

look who sacrificed everything

it is my pleasure to be alone

pretending

concealing

eliminating

rearranging

I don’t live here anymore

practicing freedom

spoiled the run

controlled happiness will cure me

emptied my weekend

broken again

yes, but I’m too busy running

kept from your evening

I’m running

look who sacrificed everything

it is my pleasure to be alone

pretending

concealing

eliminating

rearranging

pretending

practicing

my freedom draining

imitating

I don’t live here anymore
