Junkie’s Runnin’ Dry

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I always looked up to the ones who walked away Choosing themselves over preset ways Of looking at a future that had no room For the questions they lived for Always knew I never could have walked away myself My self worth was beyond any help I didn't care to test it against the rejection I'd seen before [Pre-Chorus] But those I loved so much They underwent this change They're working forty hours They got caught in the game [Chorus] Like junkies running dry The vulnerability Like junkies running dry They're always there on time Like junkies running dry They can't be satisfied Like junkies running dry [Verse 2] This wonderful generosity A third of our lives to do what we please Doesn't look that great to me It doesn't even really look fair They call it youthful idealism And even I would have to agree with them Some of us grow up, and it's still there [Pre-Chorus] But those I loved so much They underwent this change They're working forty hours They got caught in the game [Chorus] Like junkies running dry The vulnerability Like junkies running dry They're always there on time Like junkies running dry We can't be satisfied Like junkies running dry [Guitar solo] [Bridge] I grow up too slow, I don't wanna go I grow up too slow, I don't wanna go I grow up too slow, I don't wanna go I grow up too slow, I don't wanna go [Pre-Chorus] The ones I loved so much They underwent this change They're working forty hours They got caught in the game But now I'm working just like everyone else But I'll get out, I'll get out of here [Chorus] Junkies running dry The vulnerability Like junkies running dry They're always there on time Like junkies running dry We can't be satisfied Like junkies running dry
