"Keep Running" lyrics

"Keep Running"

One

Three

"Hello again," you say to the folks at the E.D.D
You've been dire and disgusted and come in most every day
To keep yourself alive, you heave insults and forever curse
The almighty fuckin' talisman that lives in the dirty church

And you keep on running
Keep on running
Keep on running
From yourself
From everyone
From each new day

You never felt true pleasure or fell ill from real pain
But you complain so consistently as if you've been betrayed
Nothing's ever met the guidelines that you set for each new day
There's always something standing nonchalantly in your way

And you keep on running
Keep on running
Keep on running
From yourself
From everyone
From each new day

To all the optimistic players you heave a sigh
These loyalists keep counting on everything being worthwhile
But you don't catch the light of day
And you've been accused of carrying on this way
See, you don't believe in preaching or praise
You just want to make it through each time-consuming day

And you keep on running
Keep on running
Keep on running
From yourself
From everyone
From yourself
From everyone
From each new day
From each new day
From each new day
