Running in Place (Alternate Take)

Sounds bounce around, the noise just drowns me out

Too fast to focus, nothing is showing any sign of slowing down

Dreams feed to me in the form of a magazine

I can't control it, channels have chosen what I'm supposed to be

It's hopeless, as far as I can see

There's no rest 'cause we're stuck on repeat (I'll)

Stand here and wait for the world to finally stop

Running in place, chasing after what we don't need

Keep running

I'll stand here and wait for the world

Bright flashing lights, the ads just fill my eyes

Colors colliding, voices inviting me to buy a better life

She speaks to me, he knows just what I need

I can't control it, I have to own it, everything's made for me

It's hopeless, as far as I can see

There's no rest 'cause we're stuck on repeat (I'll)

Stand here and wait for the world to finally stop

Running in place, chasing after what we don't need

Keep running

I'll stand here and wait for the world

For the world to finally stop

Chasing after what we want

Just take it all away (take it all away)

Flush it all away (flush it all away)

We won't change

I'll stand here and wait for the world to finally stop

Running in place, chasing after what we don't need

Keep running

I'll stand here and wait for the world

For the world to stop

For the world to stop

For the world to stop

For the world to finally stop
