There’s no such thing as running
But there’s a whole lot of denying it’s there
And you may not be forthcoming
But keeping quiet doesn’t make it easy to bare
Because the burden that you’re holding’s
getting mighty heavy
And the longer that carry it
The more it’ll weigh
And for what?
For whom?
And how long?
There’s no such thing as closure
And waiting for it sets you on an imminent fate
And it won’t ever be over
If you expect to stumble on a definite day
Now think back to all the people
All the power you gave
Just ‘cause they did something bad enough
To go on a page
And for what?
For whom?
And how long?
