7. I've been running
I´ve been running down the same
old street on the lookout for a job.
I´ve been doing this, I´ve been doing
that but nothing seems to fit.
So they tell me that I have to make
my mind clear and settle for some greater plan.
To be one of thoose that just too late
came to realize he´s dead.
I don´t want to waste my time
in life like a slave until I die.
I want to see, I want to feel
every moment meant for me.
But they just won´t understand it no
and they just can´t see it through.
And it might just be the better of ways
than enlightment come too late.
Hey! what are you running for today?
You´d better stop, just before it is too late!
I said Hey! you´d better find some other way!
You´re running out of time, yeah!
You´re running out of time, yeah!
I´ll keep on running this race of mine,
this journey to the bitter end.
And I´ll try to see and understand
as much as I ever can.
But they tell me that I have to make
my mind clear and settle for some greater plan.
And be one of those that just too late
came to realize he´s dead.
Some people just go on withouth thought,
without never ever asking why.
They´re running down the road too fast.
and can´t see that it´s a fact.
Sooner than they ever thought it´ll be.
the end just come to show.
They´ll be wondering what kind of life
they´ve had, and what they´ve had to pay.
