| Uptight, too hung up, too much to be done
|
| You stand there shivering under the sun
|
| Do you have what it takes?
|
| One shot and you’re drawing blanks
|
| Now everyone’s passing to leave you behind
|
| You swear you’ve pissed away your whole life only to miss it all
|
| Oh, an hourglass’ll lay you on your ass if you just watch it fall
|
| Turn your head, kid, right back around it
|
| You’re pulling away from all that you wanted
|
| The coming of age you’re dreading to happen
|
| You put your foot down, you keep on running
|
| Deep in the pit of my stomach I rummage
|
| Through thoughts of amounting to all that I needed
|
| To being the downfall, doubts that determine you
|
| Don’t give them hold of you, be who you’re running to
|
| Turn your head, kid, right back around it
|
| You’re pulling away from all that you wanted
|
| The coming of age you’re dreading to happen
|
| You put your foot down, you keep on running
|
| So you keep on running
|
| And don’t get it twisted
|
| You keep on running for me
|
| Turn your head
|
| Right back around it
|
| The coming of age you’re dreading to happen
|
| You put your foot down, you keep on running
|
| You keep on running
|
| Don’t stop your running
|
| You know they’re coming
|
| You know they’re coming for you |
