Time slows
Sun beats down
He runs
Heart beats
Head pounds
One foot, another
Concentration
Shadow covers him
Shriek Distant
Yet too close
Heart beats
Head pounds
One foot, another
Concentration
He runs
Sun beats down
He feels the rush of air
From the beat of the wings
Too close
Heart beats
Head pounds
One foot, another
Concentration
He runs
Sun blocked
He stops
Time resumes its regular pace
