Runnin' - Relient K

Movement I

Time to tie myself down to the train track

Gonna relax and try to explain that I rarely feel alive unless I’m running for

my life

'Cause I’m over monsters under the bed

But I’ve got suspicion in my head

That I’ve got the cure but I’m not so sure that I’ve got the cure

So when I hear that whistle blow (Ooh, ooh)

That’s when I know it’s time to go

All I can do is run

All I can do is run

All I can do is run

Someone tell me where to

Someone tell me what from

All I can do is run

Time to tie myself down to the train track

Gonna relax and try to explain that I rarely feel alive unless I’m running for

my life

'Cause I’m over monsters under the bed

But I’ve got suspicion in my head

That I’ve got the cure, but I’m not so sure that I’ve got the cure

Movement II

I can remember the days in my life

When my future looked bright

Back before mom had died

Before I heard dad coughing up blood in his room

And the doctor said «Son, he’ll be joining her soon»

And then everything changed

What was bright turned to bleak

'Cause everyone seemed to get sick, 'cept for me

And my dad’s final cough, where they carted me off

They stuck me in hell and they gave me a cross

And said «Son, the church is all you’ve got now, got now, son

So give your life to God now, God

My son, I know you’re scared, I know you’re young

Just say your prayers tonight

'Cause nobody’s gonna come

'Cause no one loves an orphan»

Movement III

I got an old wooden village house

And almost every day I’m running 'round the block

I got anything anybody could ever want, it’s true

Maybe the cold made me move down south

And I forgot to wind the grandfather clock

I got anything anybody could ever want

So I’m spending my time all on you

I’m putting myself in your shoes

I’m putting myself in your shoes

I’m putting myself in your shoes, yeah

And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,

running on home to you, yeah

And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running

I got an old wooden village house

And almost every day I’m running 'round the block

I got anything anybody could ever want, yeah it’s true

Maybe the cold made me move down south

And I forgot to wind the grandfather clock

I got anything anybody could ever want

So I’m spending my time all on you

I’m putting myself in your shoes

I’m putting my hell to good use

I’m putting myself in your shoes, yeah

And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,

running on home to you, yeah

(Running, running, running, running, running, running)

I keep on

(Running, running, running, running, running, running)

I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running

(Running, running, running, running, running, running)

(Running, running, running, running, running, running)

(Running, running, running, running, running, running)

(Running, running, running, running, running, running)

Yeah, yeah, yeah

And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,

running on home to you, yeah yeah yeah

Putting myself in your shoes (I'm putting myself in your shoes)

I’m putting myself in your shoes (I'm putting my hell to good use)

I’m putting myself in your shoes, yeah

And I keep on running, running, running, running, running, running,

running on home to you, yeah yeah yeah

Putting myself in your shoes

Putting myself in your shoes
