Constant Runners

By the time you get over here We will be gone everybody knows We don't wait long some people say it's cause we're on the run People will talk I heard them saying we look broken and gaunt I heard them saying we look weathered and old I heard them saying we were out of control And you say Don't stop looking around your shoulder It's all that lying its making you bolder It's all that crying it's making you older It's time it's time to get a grip We were constant runners And when the going got tough We'd leave it all in our dust We were constant runners Till the day finally came When we ran straight out of luck Runner runner Just keep on running Runner runner Just keep on running Runner runner Just keep on running Runner runner Just keep on running Now I look back Perhaps it's fair to say you had a point But in our defence we weren't along There were others It felt like the whole world was running too Don't stop looking around your shoulder It's all that lying its making you bolder It's all that crying its making you older It's time it's time to get a grip We were constant runners And when the going got tough We'd leave it all in our dust We were constant runners Till the day finally came When we ran straight out of luck Runner runner Just keep on running Runner runner Just keep on running We were constant runners Thought we were leaving it all Just keep on running behind It's all gonna catch you up It's all gonna catch you up It's all gonna catch you up It's all gonna catch you up It's all gonna catch you up We were constant runners And when the going got tough We'd leave it all in our dust We were constant runners Till the day finally came When we ran straight out of luck We were constant runners We were running away from the world We were constant runners Thought we were leaving it all Just keep on running behind
