Jack's Mannequin - 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
And 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 oceans running aground
In search of water, in search of water

We are just these people
Such tragic little things
You take a 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

That we are just these people running around
And I am in no hurry to figure it out
We are just like oceans running aground
In search of water, in search of water, in search of water

People living on the edge would never come
In search of water
People standing and watching people run
In search of water, just watching people run

Yeah, we are just these people running around
And there's no need to worry, we'll figure it out
We are just those people running, people running around
In search of water, just watching people run
