Lyrics

Yesterday is gone, so I was told

Yesterday is gone, as someone informed.

Soon, boy, you'll see you've been grown old

The realization that one has aged will come soon.

Now keep on running, life's not fair

Keep moving forward despite life's unfairness.

Now keep on running and take care

Continue to run and be cautious.


Summer followed winter followed fall

Seasons change cyclically, representing the inevitability of fate.

This fate, boy, happens to us all

Fate affects everyone; keep running.

Now keep on running and take care

Continue running and taking care despite challenges.

Keep on running, life's not fair

Life's unfairness persists, so keep running.


And it looks cloudy today

The present moment is uncertain or challenging.

When did we go astray?

Reflecting on when things went off course.

Every year there are more lines in the palm of my hand

Noticing the passage of time through lines in the palm.


And it looks cloudy today

The current situation is uncertain or challenging.

When did we go astray?

Reflecting on the moment of going astray.

It looks like i used to swim in quicksand

Expressing a feeling of being stuck or sinking.

Swim in quicksand

Repeating the idea of being stuck in a difficult situation.


I know that you're a sentimental man

Acknowledging someone's sentimental nature.

You tell the mice their best laid plan

Informing mice about plans, possibly metaphorical.

Now keep on running, life's not fair

Continue running despite life's unfairness.

Now keep on running and take care

Emphasizing the need to run and take care.


Time is running fastly

Time is passing swiftly.

There aren't many things that last

Not many things endure; seeking truth is challenging.

We try to figure out the truth

Attempting to understand the truth despite being blind.

Although we're blind

Highlighting the challenges of discerning truth.


The years are passing by

Years are passing while searching for truth.

Therewhile we seek and search and try

Continuously seeking the elusive truth.

To find the truth

The ongoing quest to find the truth.

We know we never dare to find

Acknowledging the reluctance to discover the truth.


And it looks cloudy today

Current circumstances are uncertain or challenging.

When did we go astray?

Reflecting on the moment of going astray, again.

Every year there are more lines in the palm of my hand

Noticing the passage of time through lines in the palm, again.


And it looks cloudy today

The current situation is uncertain or challenging, again.

When did we go astray?

Reflecting on the moment of going astray, again.

It looks like i used to swim in quicksand

Expressing a feeling of being stuck or sinking, again.

Swim in quicksand

Repeating the idea of being stuck in a difficult situation, again.
