Lyrics Runnin' - Relient K

Runnin'

Movement I
Time to tie myself down to the train track
Gonna relax and try to explain that I rarely feel alive unless I’m running for
my life
'Cause I’m over monsters under the bed
But I’ve got suspicion in my head
That I’ve got the cure but I’m not so sure that I’ve got the cure
So when I hear that whistle blow (Ooh, ooh)
That’s when I know it’s time to go
All I can do is run
All I can do is run
All I can do is run
Someone tell me where to
Someone tell me what from
All I can do is run
Time to tie myself down to the train track
Gonna relax and try to explain that I rarely feel alive unless I’m running for
my life
'Cause I’m over monsters under the bed
But I’ve got suspicion in my head
That I’ve got the cure, but I’m not so sure that I’ve got the cure
Movement II
I can remember the days in my life
When my future looked bright
Back before mom had died
Before I heard dad coughing up blood in his room
And the doctor said «Son, he’ll be joining her soon»
And then everything changed
What was bright turned to bleak
'Cause everyone seemed to get sick, 'cept for me
And my dad’s final cough, where they carted me off
They stuck me in hell and they gave me a cross
And said «Son, the church is all you’ve got now, got now, son
So give your life to God now, God
My son, I know you’re scared, I know you’re young
Just say your prayers tonight
'Cause nobody’s gonna come
'Cause no one loves an orphan»
Movement III
I got an old wooden village house
And almost every day I’m running 'round the block
I got anything anybody could ever want, it’s true
Maybe the cold made me move down south
And I forgot to wind the grandfather clock
I got anything anybody could ever want
So I’m spending my time all on you
I’m putting myself in your shoes
I’m putting myself in your shoes
I’m putting myself in your shoes, yeah
And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,
running on home to you, yeah
And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running
I got an old wooden village house
And almost every day I’m running 'round the block
I got anything anybody could ever want, yeah it’s true
Maybe the cold made me move down south
And I forgot to wind the grandfather clock
I got anything anybody could ever want
So I’m spending my time all on you
I’m putting myself in your shoes
I’m putting my hell to good use
I’m putting myself in your shoes, yeah
And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,
running on home to you, yeah
(Running, running, running, running, running, running)
I keep on
(Running, running, running, running, running, running)
I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running
(Running, running, running, running, running, running)
(Running, running, running, running, running, running)
(Running, running, running, running, running, running)
(Running, running, running, running, running, running)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,
running on home to you, yeah yeah yeah
Putting myself in your shoes (I'm putting myself in your shoes)
I’m putting myself in your shoes (I'm putting my hell to good use)
I’m putting myself in your shoes, yeah
And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,
running on home to you, yeah yeah yeah
Putting myself in your shoes
Putting myself in your shoes
