Where Do I Run by GeNie

Lyrics

1st Verse
How can it be everything here and around
Is not what I’d like, I scream without making a sound
The noise in my head starts to pound it won’t stop
The walls they have ears, they listen to all that I say
The floor it appears to behaves in its own special way
Waiting for me to be off on my way
Not today

Chorus
Where do I run where can I go?
Where is the thing I need the most?
When I feel so torn inside
And there’s nowhere left to hide
While the memories of my dreams are still alive
Down inside

2nd Verse
Play down the fears pretend it means less than it might
Stand tall in the storms that pound the foundations of life
I just have to wait for a sign of the light
Try as I might

Chorus
Where do I run where can I go?
Where is the thing I need the most?
When I feel so torn inside
And there’s nowhere left to hide
While the memories of my dreams are still alive
Down inside

Instrumental

Chorus
Where do I run where can I go?
Where is the thing I need the most?
When I feel so torn inside
And there’s nowhere left to hide
While the memories of my dreams are still alive
Where do I run where can I go?
Where is the thing I need the most?
When I feel so torn inside
And there’s nowhere left to hide
While the memories of my dreams are still alive
