Hit The Ground Running

I hear it's always the same

Hard to know a weakness within

When you're always on your feet

You've never hit the floor

Or even questioned where you're going

Naturally that's selection you see

With a sense of irony

This surface tension shows

Yet another complication

You cannot afford to

Give me one more reason

It's all you have to spare

But I'd rather hear the reason

You hit the ground running

I hear it's always the same

I have seen that something has to change

It would seem that you could not believe

How the present came to be

But it will pass before

You discover your elation

History has a certain degree

Of revealing where you've been

But despite this fact you chose

To ignore your self control

Give me one more reason

It's all you have to spare

But I'd rather hear the reason

You hit the ground running

Better not to do or die

Better it's to reason why

Better not to wish away

Better times and better days.
