Privately, behind dull eyes a soul cries out in pain
Quietly, behind the smile, the tears will fall like rain
Alone is not a number, but a state of mind
Surrounded by my friends, sometimes I'm hard to find

Chorus
And I run and I run and I run
But I can't get out of the rain
And I run and I run and I run
But I can't get out of this pain

With rituals and habits, I mask reality
In silent desperation, I face my frailities
It takes every ounce of strength to face this world's demands
But my heart is softly crying
Someone please understand

Chorus

Refuge for my spirit, catch my silent tears
Speak to my heart oh Father with worlds I cannot hear
With words I cannot hear

Chorus
