Bird York What Are You Running After
Are you still waking in a panic
are you sleeping in a ball
are you still eating dinner in your car
can't waste precious working hours
and the phone keeps ringing like a church on judgment day
you say it drives you crazy
wouldn't have it any other way
what are you running after these days
who are you leaving home alone
what are you running after these days
you any closer to the spotlight
now that I'm gone
are you still living life distracted
from all the things you need to do
that promise you fame and power from the masses
all the things love can't get you
and the jobs keep coming like Cuban refugees
and the crowd is loving
your success at any price disease
what are you running after these days
who are you leaving home alone
I hope that she's strong
what are you running after these days
you any closer to the spotlight
now that I'm gone
going around on your hamster wheel
hoping to fill your hole with gold
and the sound of wild applause
what are you running after these days
who are you leaving home alone
I hope that she's strong
what are you running after these days
you any closer to the spotlight
now that I'm gone
