Flint - The Greeting Committee

Uptight, too hung up, too much to be done

You stand there shivering under the sun

Do you have what it takes?

One shot and you’re drawing blanks

Now everyone’s passing to leave you behind

You swear you’ve pissed away your whole life only to miss it all

Oh, an hourglass’ll lay you on your ass if you just watch it fall

Turn your head, kid, right back around it

You’re pulling away from all that you wanted

The coming of age you’re dreading to happen

You put your foot down, you keep on running

Deep in the pit of my stomach I rummage

Through thoughts of amounting to all that I needed

To being the downfall, doubts that determine you

Don’t give them hold of you, be who you’re running to

Turn your head, kid, right back around it

You’re pulling away from all that you wanted

The coming of age you’re dreading to happen

You put your foot down, you keep on running

So you keep on running

And don’t get it twisted

You keep on running for me

Turn your head

Right back around it

The coming of age you’re dreading to happen

You put your foot down, you keep on running

You keep on running

Don’t stop your running

You know they’re coming

You know they’re coming for you
