accumulate into one
the second half has begun
and I'm not the judge
innocent are hung
remain unsung
and I hold a grudge
take a stab in the dark
and then it comes as a shock
finger on the pulse
everything that can
happens to the man;
see the mannequin smile

when I am running out
I am running out
I am running out

switch the moon and the sun
shield and the gun
clip after clip
I'd love to stay and watch
make mine what you clutch;
empire slips
the weight is too much to hold
excuses old
I realize
everything that can
happens to the man
see the mannequin smile

you don't get it like I get it (you don't get it) like I do
you don't get it like I get it (you don't get it) like I do

when I am running out
I am running out
I am running out

empire slips
excuses old
I realize
everything that can
happens to the man
see the mannequin smile

when I am running out
I am running out
I am running out
