February 12th is the birthday of a very dear friend of mine who unfortunately took his life a few years ago now. He was a drummer and as a bass player, the bond we had was unbreakable (we even played in the same band)... until it became broken. This song is my way of coming to terms with an event that still affects me today. #suicide #sad #sadsong #piano

Running Away From It All © C. Stewart 2026

V1 When I heard the news I was terrified Coz my meaning of life ceased to exist But a month before you said to me that life Was something you found hard to resist

Ch But running away from it all Couldn’t hide away the tears that you cried Running away from it all Couldn’t find your truth when the others had lied Running away from it all Couldn’t hide away the hurt you kept inside Coz running away from it all… is suicide

V2 I often wondered what went through your mind Just let me in I want to understand What’s it like to feel there’s no way out While you life is in the palm of your hand

Chorus M8

V3 There’s one less angel in this world today And I have lost a beautiful friend I hope you’re happy wherever you are And that your restlessness has come to an end

Chorus
