Running Songtext / Lyric

Days feel like minutes

A lifetime is rushing by

You are moving in circles

It seems you're going nowhere



Keep moving, keep moving



At night you can't find sleep

And your headaches don't go away

Always giving your best

Knowing it won't be near enough



Keep moving, keep moving

Always keep moving

Or be removed



So what is that mission we're on

And when did I sign in

Is there anything in it for me at all



Still lies the ocean wide

And I hear it's calling me

To a place beyond wrong and right

Where the sky meets the sea






There's a deadline approaching

Your tax statement's overdue

An invoice unsettled

And too many bills to be paid



Keep pushing, keep pushing



There's a loan from the bank

A sales-target out of reach

A project waiting in the pipeline

And another one unfinished still

Keep pushing, keep pushing

Always keep pushing

Or be pushed around



So what is that mission we're on

And when did I sign in

Is there anything in it for me at all



Still lies the ocean wide

And I hear it's calling me

To a place beyond wrong and right

Where the sky meets the sea



Still lies the ocean deep

Such grace never met the eye

A whole world in peaceful sleep

Under a star covered sky



It's a rat race we're in

And this game that we play

Has no winner, just losers

Or total refusers that just break away



All your friends feel neglected

And your wife says that you don't care

And they all have a point

But there is a job to be done



Keep running, keep running

Always keep running

Until your time has run out



So what is that mission we're on

And when did I sign in

Is there anything in it for me at all



Still lies the ocean wide

And I hear it's calling me

To a place beyond wrong and right

Where the sky meets the sea



Still lies the ocean deep

Such grace never met the eye

A whole world in peaceful sleep

Under a star covered sky
