I'm thinkin of a day maybe somewhat far away where the world I know and the ones I live sit 6 feet over me but I cannot be afraid at least that's what they say so I stand up tall and strong and fierce to face my destiny
but I begin to run away I'm searching for a place a place I can escape to hide inside and stay alive just to die another day
like me they're just like me running, running
I'm thinkin of a girl my only in the world she's got a certain secret melody she sings that I adore she says she's not afraid but as her youth start to fade I think her strength and faith will go and fear will take their place
but she swears that she's not afraid what I want to evade she hopes to embrace but no matter how we think we've all got one foot in the grave
like me she's just like me running, running she must be just like me running, running
I'm thinking of you I'm thinking of you cus you seem so sure and tried and true though your time is coming soon the doctor's work is through he's done all that he can do he leaves the room and says to me I'll leave her here with you
her eyes shine as she says to me I'm not afraid of the other side my eyes will be opened wide I'm not sure what's to come but if I can when I'm done I'll be waiting when you die.
