[Intro] Been moving all day Funny I ain't gone nowhere [Verse 1] Up early Out late One more thing One more place Phone ringing Gas burning Whole damn day just turning I got good at being needed Good at moving on command Good at filling every minute Till no minute had a plan [Pre-Chorus] Look at me go Look at me— ... Where? [Chorus] I been running I been running I been running in place Whole lotta motion Same view Same ache I kept calling it progress 'Cause exhaustion looked the part But being busy ain't the same as moving toward what I want [Instrumental] [Verse 2] New task Same morning New week Same warning More money More leaving More reasons to keep speeding Everybody loves a person Who can carry everything Funny how they'll keep you loaded If you never ask where it's going [Pre-Chorus] Look at me go Faster now Faster— ... Where? [Chorus] I been running I been running I been running in place Whole lotta motion Same view Same ache I kept calling it progress 'Cause exhaustion looked the part But being busy ain't the same as moving toward what I want [Long Instrumental] [Verse 3] Then I had one quiet minute Didn't know what to do with it No request No destination Nothing pulling at my sleeve And underneath all that silence Came a question I could hear If I stopped doing everything What would I actually choose? [Bridge] Oh That's different Maybe tired isn't proof Maybe full isn't forward Maybe motion isn't movement Maybe faster ain't a direction ... I've been measuring my life by how little life was left in me [Instrumental Expansion] [Final Chorus] I don't wanna run just to run now Don't wanna move just to say I moved I can leave a minute empty I can let a whole thing wait Being busy ain't the same as moving And I think I finally know the difference [Extended Instrumental] [Outro] One thing My thing That way ... Move
