No Place To Run

Story Behind The Song

This song is about: WHEN life hits hard, you will always come back to, in this case, my dad. The chorus has a dual symbolism of God's love as well. When all hell breaks loose, even the most prideful of us end up bending our knee. Only time will tell if friends are TRULY friends. Rough times seperate wheat from chaff. Yadda, yadda, yadda...

Lyrics

No Place To Run

Dad it seems I'm down again
Another knife at my throat
And all with a grin
I never once imagined it would come to this
Although you told me so
So tell me now, what I already know

Son my words are heavy like stone
They'll either fall to the ground
Or separate your flesh from your bone
Cause when the silver lining is gone
You're gonna come back to me
Because there will be no place to run

Good name in man, only time will tell
I talk a lot to myself
I'm getting to know me pretty well
But if there's one thing in life I know
One thing that I could prescribe
Is that often times
There's more than what meets the eye

Son my words are heavy like stone
They'll either fall to the ground
Or separate your flesh from your bone
And when the silver lining is gone
You're gonna come back to me
Because there will be no place to run
