Lyrics

I Got To Run

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Did you hear what the bubblehead said today?

Truth is dead they say

It's relative to our imagination

Chronicles of greed extends the price that we pay

Innocence, it relents, and percocet prevents the pain alright!

Father where are you in all this mess?

Your memory suggests

But it's fading into non-substantiation

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Don't gimme-no, gimme-no, gimme-no

Walk away, you can stay, you can stay, you can stay

But I got to run

I got to find what's waiting there

I got to find my place under the sun

I got to run

'Cause man this place is killing me

And if I stay who knows what I'll become

I got to run

Watch the moneymen feed their need

As their heroes blast on the daily feed

Mr. Normal reeks of death

As he tries to remember to forget

Let's do lunch as we separate

As they twist and they turn

They're twistin' our fate, now

I don't know why I hesitate

Before it's too late

I got to run

I got to find what's waiting there

I got to find my place under the sun

I got to run

'Cause man this place is killing me

And if I stay who knows what I'll become

I got to run

The clock is ticking and it's tick tock ticking every moment going by

And every second that passes is one more reason why

You may not get it but I know I'll regret it if I let you hold me here

And I won't take fear within me to the other side

I got to run

I got to find what's waiting there

I got to find my place under the sun

I got to run

'Cause man this place is killing me

And if I stay who knows what I'll become

I got to run

Tell me quickly while I'm young

I got to find my place under the sun

I got to run

Will you tell me

What this life's meant to be

'Cause all I see is sadness waiting for me

There's nothing I hear but this dark melody

The silence speaks and so belongs

Every whisper in the wind

There's a world beyond our sight

Seek the summit here below

As your heart is reaching on

For a love that never dies

That never dies
