Running On the Spot

I was hoping wed make real progress, but it seems we have lost the power
Any tiny step of advancement, is like a raindrop falling into the ocean
Were running on the spot always have always will, were just the next generation of the emotionally crippled
We're just running on the spot

Though we keep piling up the building blocks, the structure never seems to get any higher
Because we keep kicking out the foundations, and stand useless while our lives fall down
I believe in life and I believe in love, but the world in which I live in keeps trying to prove it wrong
We're just running on the spot

Out to the pastures we call society, you can't see further than the bottom of your glass
Only you but easily shocked, you gets all violent when the boats gets rocked
We're just running on the spot, we're just running on our own

Just like sheep little lambs into the slaughter, don't fully grasp what exactly is wrong
Truth is you never cared still, you get all violent when the boats gets rocked
Intelligence should be our first weapon, and stop reveling in rejection
And follow yourselves not some aging drain brain, whose quite content to go on feeding you garbage
Were running on the spot always have always will, we're just the next generation of the emotionally crippled

We're just running on the spot, we're just running on our own
We're just running on the spot, we're just running on our own
