lyrics

Keep on running
No time to look around
All you have to know is
If you stop you’ll hit the ground

Cause you’re running on the treadmill
Chasing all your dreams
But every step you take you see it’s farther than it seemed
And the more you run the more you come to realize
That this is not the way to achieve all that you desire

Can’t catch your breath
But don’t you dare slow down
They pump you full of propaganda
Hate those fallen clowns

Cause you’re running on the treadmill
Wasting all your breath
And every step you take is just one closer to your death
But they keep telling us that we are all just running strong
Stay on your little treadmill, come on now move along
One by one we stop
And see you’re standing still
And you just kept us running
So you could sit atop your hill

Cause we’re not running on the treadmill
Anymore for you
And the millions strong will raise their fists for something new
With planted feet and glaring eyes we start to shout
When we run again it will be to chase you out
