He never was a child He always was wise He was angry as he was wild To rule the world would be so nice He loved to explore the castle His sister was playing on a rug He felt like a clown And so he reached out for the crown He was the king of the world For all he knew - He could destroy all he wanted And the whole world too See him running in the dark He flees from the yearning in his heart He runs from the feeling in the flood Everything he touches turns into blood See him running in the dark A magical melody spears his heart From his eyes are falling tears What was he doing all those years? Feel him running in your heart He likes to keep two worlds apart He runs from the feeling in the flood Everything he touches turns into blood He grew up to grow old Just like he was foretold He was the leader in all the states So he walled her castle gates His sight became blurred And his ideas were absurd His hand became a claw As his word turned into law He is the beginning of the pain But nothing ever stays the same His colorless empire ends right here As her melody is in his ear See him running in the dark He flees from the yearning in his heart He runs from the feeling in the flood Everything he touches turns into blood See him running in the dark A magical melody spears his heart From his eyes are falling tears What was he doing all these years? Feel him running in your heart He likes to keep two worlds apart He runs from the feeling in the flood Everything he touches turns into blood
