Run



For this song, I highly suggest that you close your eyes and just take in the lyrics. It is a really good song, and I don't really have much more to say about it. Just that I think that at times, we all feel like we're stuck, and we don't know where to go in this great big world. But no matter what, keep pressing on, keep running, because life isn't a treadmill. It'll end, and it'll be a blessed ending for us...

Stoplights, breakdown, we cry, last try
Worlds collide, time to decide
Where you want to go in this great big world
Where you want to go in this great big world


Stuck here too long in this sad song
Lost in a street, everyone has
Vanished and you're all alone
But you don't know where to go
Yeah you're all alone
And you want to go home

Run just as fast as you can
Run, 'til you reach the end
Where the fallen finally land
And your world starts over again
Run

Next page, new day, finding my way
Stumble upon the strength to move on
I am not alone in this great big world
And you are not alone in this great big world


Run just as fast as you can
Run, 'til you reach the end
Where the fallen finally land
And your world starts over again
Run now don't you look back
Run towards the light straight ahead
Where the lost souls make a beautiful sound
And new life is finally found
Run

Your free, free falling
A new beginning
This is our time


Run just as fast as you can
Run, 'til you reach the end
Where the fallen finally land
And your world starts over again
Run now don't you look back
Run towards the light straight ahead
Where the lost souls make a beautiful sound
And new life is finally found
Run

wow abi, you are on a roll with these new song posts xD I love it.

The message I get from this song is to never give up. Life is hard....there's no doubt about that. My life is bearable because I know that there's a purpose to my "running." Sometimes I do feel like I am lost and I am just aimlessly and hopelessly wandering around. God somehow pulls me back to reality...back to His world. I have a sense of direction because of Him. I do have to keep "running." Thank you for the song xD

yess. this is a really good encouragement for me, actually. I've been feeling easily discouraged nowadays, probably listening to Satan's whispers "You can't make a change", "God is not really your god", "You're so messed up, you let God down all the time"... And just recently finding it hard to live out what I say I believe. But i love that line, Run now, don't you look back / Run towards the light straight ahead. Maybe its one way I can respond to these terrible thoughts: just run to God as fast as I can, without stopping to 'think about it'. Run towards the goal for God. Thanks Ab for this song =].
