**Run Into the Light** [Intro] Click. Door. Cold air. Go. [Verse 1] Clock spits six. The back room hisses. A paper cup leaks through both my fists. I peel my name off the locker door. It folds. It sticks. I leave it on the floor. [Pre-Chorus] The exit buzzes. White and thin. I push it wide. The air gets in. [Chorus] Ru-ru-run into the light. Let it hit. Let it bite. No spotlight. Just day. I blink. I stay. Ru-ru-run into the light. Both feet down. Eyes wide. Li-li-light. Li-li-light. Run into the light. [Verse 2] Bus brakes cough. A truck spits grit. The street tastes sharp. I breathe it in. My shoes slap hard on the crossing paint. The sun cuts through. I don't look away. [Pre-Chorus] One block. Two. My pulse keeps time. A window flashes. I see my stride. [Chorus] Ru-ru-run into the light. Let it hit. Let it bite. No spotlight. Just day. I blink. I stay. Ru-ru-run into the light. Both feet down. Eyes wide. Li-li-light. Li-li-light. Run into the light. [Bridge] I stop. One breath. My knees knock twice. A door slams shut three streets behind. I turn my head. Then face the sky. [Final Chorus] Ru-ru-run into the light. Let it hit. Let it bite. No spotlight. Just day. I blink. I stay. Ru-ru-run into the light. Both feet down. Eyes wide. Li-li-light. Li-li-light. Run into the light. [Outro] Click. Door. Cold air. Gone.
