Lyrics

Well, it's right before our eyes

Observing the current situation directly in front of us

But still the grass is always greener on the chase

Despite the reality, there's a perception that other situations are better

It's been twenty-something years

Referring to a period of about twenty years

But still there's nothing really happening in this town

Despite the time passed, there's a lack of significant events in the town

And no matter where I go

Expressing a sense of discontent no matter where the person goes

The kids they say they want to move right from this place

Young people express a desire to leave the current place

Don't like where they're going, what they're doing

Disapproval of the direction and activities of others

They're just waiting around

People are passively waiting without taking action

And you say you gotta move

Suggesting a need for change or relocation

You better think it through

Encouraging careful consideration before making a move

All around the whole wide world

Highlighting the diversity of the entire world

There's faces, different places

Various people and places around the world

That we run to like we're running a race

Describing the constant movement as if participating in a race

Traveling around the whole wide world

Travelling globally may not bring fulfillment

Won't mean anything

Emphasizing the importance of finding peace in one place

If I can't sit in peace in one place

Personal contentment is essential even amidst change

We're changing places

Continual change as a means to avoid life's difficulties

Always moving to escape our life's pain

Relocating to escape the pain in life

In every city, different places, different faces

Every city has its unique aspects, contributing to life's novelty

Keeps life new all the time

Constant change keeps life interesting

And I know I won't be happy just moving around

A realization that constant movement may not lead to happiness

It's all just the same 'cause everywhere you go

Everywhere feels the same, suggesting inner challenges

You'll discovered that you're chased by your mind

A realization that personal challenges follow wherever one goes

We don't like standing around

Expressing discomfort with standing still and inactivity

Standing in one place

Disliking being confined to one place

All that we can do

Acknowledging limited options in certain situations

We'd better think it through

Emphasizing the importance of careful consideration before acting
