lyrics

A flash frame like a photo or a full-fledged scene
These images are instigating hidden memories
And I think, think, think, trying hard to just recall
It’s not clear, was I here? Is this a memory at all?
Or a rogue neuron misfire or a dream I never had?
It could be real; it makes me feel like good old Abraham
In a land of non-believers, he must have often thought
What I’m seeing contradicts everything I’ve ever been taught

Bam! Lights flash as he takes another one to the chin
The world starts to spin, vertigo sets in
He’s doing everything he can just to keep himself standing
But his vision starts to blur and everything starts to fade away
But he tells himself

Don’t stop, gotta hit the ground running
Don’t think or you’ll find yourself slowing down
Don’t stop, gotta hit the ground running
Gotta keep it up til you’re gone

Can’t take a breath, no you gotta keep running
Gotta keep running until the day that you die

He’s down again but bounces back and doesn’t miss a beat
It’s getting harder for him just to land safe on his feet
He lifts his rifle upwards as he glances towards the sky
Reflecting back on where he’s been, he asks the clouds why

Don’t stop, gotta hit the ground running
Don’t think or you’ll find yourself slowing down
Don’t stop, gotta hit the ground running
Gotta keep it up til you’re gone

Don't stop
Gotta hit the ground running
Don't think or you'll find yourself slowing down
Slowing down

Don’t stop, gotta hit the ground running
Don’t think or you’ll find yourself slowing down
Don’t stop, gotta hit the ground running
Gotta keep it up til you’re gone
Gotta keep it up til you're gone
Gotta keep it up keep it up keep it up til you're gone
