Running in Place Songtext

Running in Place Songtext
Floating high above the city like some torn kite
We are not some beaten dogs in an alleyway fight
Wearing thin like a pair of cheap boots in the snow
You will not run me down, you can leave, but I won′t go
It flows through the veins
Like a headache after drink
And your pride is down the drain
Not some lost kite in a storm
I just been drinking all night
I'm guess I′m trying to stay warm
I'm trying to stay warm
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
'Cause I miss your face
Hey... I′m working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
Well in the canyon there′s an echo and it's sounds
In a pale blue afternoon in a death trap town
What radiates is a heart unseen
Like ten blind horses with no riders in a dream
When all around is a love that you can′t feel
Someone robbed you long ago in some dirty deal
Can't see the forest through the trees
And it stands over me like some holy Moses on his knees... baby?
Hey... am I running in place
Or falling behind?
′Cause I miss your face
Hey... I'm working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
′Cause I miss your face
Hey... I'm working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
As the night begins to fall
It always falls
If you leave town, please don't call
Saw the look in your eyes and I was wrong my whole life
My words got swallowed up all right
And I, I wear it on the inside
And I got lost in my pride
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
′Cause I miss your face
Hey... I′m working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
'Cause I miss your face
Hey... I′m working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
We are not some beaten dogs in an alleyway fight
Wearing thin like a pair of cheap boots in the snow
You will not run me down, you can leave, but I won′t go
It flows through the veins
Like a headache after drink
And your pride is down the drain
Not some lost kite in a storm
I just been drinking all night
I'm guess I′m trying to stay warm
I'm trying to stay warm
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
'Cause I miss your face
Hey... I′m working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
Well in the canyon there′s an echo and it's sounds
In a pale blue afternoon in a death trap town
What radiates is a heart unseen
Like ten blind horses with no riders in a dream
When all around is a love that you can′t feel
Someone robbed you long ago in some dirty deal
Can't see the forest through the trees
And it stands over me like some holy Moses on his knees... baby?
Hey... am I running in place
Or falling behind?
′Cause I miss your face
Hey... I'm working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
′Cause I miss your face
Hey... I'm working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
As the night begins to fall
It always falls
If you leave town, please don't call
Saw the look in your eyes and I was wrong my whole life
My words got swallowed up all right
And I, I wear it on the inside
And I got lost in my pride
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
′Cause I miss your face
Hey... I′m working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
Hey, am I running in place
Or falling behind?
'Cause I miss your face
Hey... I′m working on me
Losing my mind
It just takes time
