On the Run

Living at the speed of light
Take solace in the endless flight
Across the stars they see you shine
Shining down

Slipping out of time and space
The planets call your lonely race
Throughout this place I see you run
Running down

A solitary messenger of possibility
Slave to timeless workings of probability
Flying too close to the sun
You're unmasked, unmade, undone
Living on the run

Spinning tales of destiny
A soliloquy torn from memory
Between the lines is where you write
Writing history

Singing words you could never say
A troubador of the modern day
Beyond the stage your lyrics fly
Flying openly
