Jim Scott - People, Running lyrics

We are just these people Happy, tangled lives We are only chemical and skin Barely strapped in for this air-conditioned drive We are tired of waiting But still we stand in line Yeah, this is all addition by subtraction A simple chain reaction of the mind Yeah, we are just these people running around And I am in no hurry to figure it out We are just like old ships running aground in search of water In search of water We are just these people Such tragic, little things You take your girlfriend to a drug deal Fall in love and now she wears a diamond ring We are tired of waiting All bandages and strings Hold you together and keep you up enough You drift in no direction, so it seems We are just these people running around And I am in no hurry to figure it out We are just like old ships running aground in search of water In search of water In search of water (I think we're learning that the answer never comes) In search of water (I think we're standing here, watching people run) In search of water Just watching people run We are just these people running around And there's no need to worry, we'll figure it out We are just these people running People running around in search of water Just watching people run
