Bedtime Badlands - Permanently Running Lyrics

Have you contemplated your own death?
Have you wondered when you'll go?
Will they kill you in your youth?
Or when you're sick and old?
If you've seen a vision of how it ends
You surely know
Last breath you'll ever take
Last breath you'll ever throw

Permanently running
Idling for good
I'm old and shaken honey
I'm not sure if I could
Permanently running
Idling for good
I'm old and shaken honey
I'm not sure if I could
If I could, oh

Have you seen those old cartoons
Where all they do is run?
Over cliffsides all too soon
Just don't look down now, son
If you do look down
The view might just astound you
The heart will reach for peace
And your feet will touch the ground

Permanently running
Idling for good
I looked and now I'm falling
I'm falling where I should
Permanently running
Idling for good
I looked and now I'm falling
I'm falling where I should
Where I should, oh

Some men bury their lunacy
Others, nothing to hide
When lifeless eyes are all you see
In which do you confide?
He'll come through the windows
Through the wall
Through the ticky, ticky, ticky ticky-tacky
He's in the hall

Permanently running
Idling for good
The threat is always looming
The hawks are in the woods
Permanently running
Idling for good
The threat is always looming
The hawks are in the woods
In the woods, oh
Permanently running
Idling for good
Moments of peace amidst the madness
Digging up the mud
Permanently running
Idling for good
Moments of peace amidst the madness
Digging up the mud
Oh
