Running, but I keep on falling behind
So scared that I cannot get up
If I stop running
Will time be on my side?
These things I wonder
Drag me down under
I’ve got to run
Displacement shows up
Like a guest unexpected
It’s here to take me apart
Decisions take over
The heart is neglected
Feels like I’m falling apart
Working against the clock
That is ticking
Like teardrops that fall to the ground
Running, but I keep on falling behind
So scared that I cannot get up
if I stop running
Will time be on my side?
These things I wonder
Drag me down under
I’ve got to run
Modification is all that surrounds
“Make changes to fit with the crowd”
Information, socialization
It’s driving me over the wall
Working against the clock
That is ticking
Like teardrops that fall to the ground
Running, but I keep on falling behind
So scared that I cannot get up
Detach from the hurry
Connect with the quiet,
Peace of mind
Get off of this merry go round
cause' I just want to stop....
Running, but I keep on falling behind
I'm so scared that I cannot get up
If I stop running
Will time be on my side?
These things I wonder
Drag me down under
I’ve got to run
Running, but I keep on falling behind
Running, will time be on my side?
Running
