Verse 1) Tick-tock, counting every second on the clock Pushing through the crowd, you never learn to stop Checking off the lists, building up the wall Climbing way too high just to face the fall Take a look around, breathe a little deep There are memories you were meant to keep Don't let all your moments turn to grey You're losing yesterday (Pre-Chorus) Always chasing banknotes, burning up your mind Looking for a future you will never find Monday to the weekend, living in a race Slow down your heart, change your pace (Chorus) Why do you run, run, run, to the finish line? Trading every dream for a little bit of time? Working for a vision that leaves you cold inside Nowhere left to hide, nowhere left to hide 'Cause you run, run, run, in a endless wheel Forgetting how to love, forgetting how to feel Aiming for the top while you're standing on the edge Is it worth the price you pay? Is it worth the pledge? (Verse 2) Commute, work, sleep, repeat the daily grind Heavy is the heavy heart you left behind Stress on your shoulders, a stone in your chest When was the last time you let yourself rest? Screaming for a break in the middle of the night Hoping that tomorrow brings a little light Stop running from the shadow on the floor 'Cause life is right outside your door (Bridge) I close my eyes and I fly away To an island where the palm trees sway Simple sweet melody, ocean in my view Nothing left to prove, nothing left to do Just letting go of the heavy load Walking slow on a quiet road... (Chorus) Why do you run, run, run, to the finish line? Trading every dream for a little bit of time? Working for a vision that leaves you cold inside Nowhere left to hide, nowhere left to hide 'Cause you run, run, run, in a endless wheel Forgetting how to love, forgetting how to feel Aiming for the top while you're standing on the edge Is it worth the price you pay? Is it worth the pledge? (Outro) Just stop... take a breath... Don't run, run, run anymore... Just stop... take a breath... Find what you're living for.
