Running On Ice
There's a lot of tension in this town
I know it's building up inside of me
I've got all the symptoms and the side effects of city life anxiety
I could never understand why the urban attitude is so superior
In a world of high rise ambition
Most people's motives are ulterior
Oh oh oh oh oh sometimes I feel as though I'm running on ice
Paying the price too long
Kind of get the feeling that I'm running on ice
Where did my life go wrong
I'm a cosmopolitan sophisticate of culture and intelligence
The culmination of technology and civilized experience
But I'm carrying the weight of all the useless junk
A modern man accumulates
I'm a statistic in a system that a civil servant dominates
Oh oh oh oh oh and all that means is that I'm running on ice
Caught in the vise so strong
I'm slipping and sliding, cause I'm running on ice
Where did my life go wrong
You've got to run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
Run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
As fast as I can climb a new disaster every time I turn around
As soon as I get one fire put out
There's another building burning down
They say this highway's going my way
But I don't know where it's taking me
It's a bad waste, a sad case, a rat race
It's breaking me oh oh oh oh oh
I get no traction cause I'm running on ice
It's taking me twice as long
I get a bad reaction cause I'm running on ice
Where did my life go wrong
You've got to run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
Run run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
I know it's building up inside of me
I've got all the symptoms and the side effects of city life anxiety
I could never understand why the urban attitude is so superior
In a world of high rise ambition
Most people's motives are ulterior
Oh oh oh oh oh sometimes I feel as though I'm running on ice
Paying the price too long
Kind of get the feeling that I'm running on ice
Where did my life go wrong
I'm a cosmopolitan sophisticate of culture and intelligence
The culmination of technology and civilized experience
But I'm carrying the weight of all the useless junk
A modern man accumulates
I'm a statistic in a system that a civil servant dominates
Oh oh oh oh oh and all that means is that I'm running on ice
Caught in the vise so strong
I'm slipping and sliding, cause I'm running on ice
Where did my life go wrong
You've got to run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
Run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
As fast as I can climb a new disaster every time I turn around
As soon as I get one fire put out
There's another building burning down
They say this highway's going my way
But I don't know where it's taking me
It's a bad waste, a sad case, a rat race
It's breaking me oh oh oh oh oh
I get no traction cause I'm running on ice
It's taking me twice as long
I get a bad reaction cause I'm running on ice
Where did my life go wrong
You've got to run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
Run run run run run oh oh oh oh oh
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ice
