Running Out Of Time Lyrics

It's just another day
And it feels like you're still running late
'Cause the times are gonna change
And you're stuck in your old mentality

You can try to lead us on
(Try to lead us on)
But there's no one else to blame
We'll be left to clean the mess
When you're gone
(Running out of time)

Running out of time
And you just don't get it
Now you're watching people die
And you still don't care
Running out of time
And you just don't get that this is how I feel
There's a million things I hate about you

It's just another battle
When you exercise your authority
When the dust is finally settled
Will you catch up with reality?

We've been waiting way too long
(Waiting way too long)
Now it's time for us to play
And we won't be looking back
When you're gone
(Running out of time)

Running out of time
And you just don't get it
Now you're watching people die
And you still don't care
Running out of time
And you just don't get that this is how I feel
There's a million things I hate about you
About you, about you, about you

I don't wanna hear the same excuses
I don't wanna hear the same excuses
I don't wanna hear your stories

Running out of time
And you just don't get it
You're watching people die
And you still don't care
Running out of time
And you just don't get it
If everybody dies
Well, you still don't care

Running out of time
And you just don't get it
Now you're watching people die
And you still don't care
Running out of time
And you just don't get that this is how I feel
And I don't wanna think about
This is how I feel
There's a million things I hate about you
There's a million things I hate about you

Definitely sounds like political figures, they'll send in other people to kill others, but will never get personal and send in someone they love or whatever, therefore they don't care a lot about what happens, and who dies.

(It's just another battle When you exercise your authority When the dust is finally settled Will you catch up with reality?)

also most of the song "Running out of time, you're watching people die and you still don't care, etc.)

But there's no one else to blame We'll be left to clean the mess When you're gone (Running out of time)

About when they leave the office/someone else gets elected we're still stuck with their mess.

Could be an anti-Bush song, however it fits just about any Political figure from any country you can name.

hm i also think it's an anti-bush song... or just political... but nice for sure

This song is very catchy, but I like to believe it's not an anti-Bush song. Because I'm a Bush supporter. And if it was, I'd probably get sad and lose some respect for Simple Plan, which I don't want to do because I love them so.

But this song is very very catchy. It reminds me of their first cd.

I think it is an anti-bush song.\

"the times are gonna change" refers to the fact that his term is about to be over

"We'll be left to clean the mess When you're gone"

Bush started wars and screwed many things up so after he leave, we have to clear up what he has done.

"Running out of time And you just don't get it Now you're watching people die And you still don't care"

Bush started two wars during his term, and obviously people are going to die.But i doubt he give a damn about those soldiers

Maybe stupid, but parents? "Watching people die". Your kids, and dying in the meaning of figuratively, suffocating them, not giving them a chance to live the life the way THEY want to... And not according to traditions (old mentality)wile nog getting the new ideas. Not understanding and even more important, not willing to understand. Fighting with the white flag, saying you care and you love, but refusing to listen. And when the teenager gets mad, the parent will say that it's his/her fault and that they didn't want a fight in the first place. Like it usually goes. Written in the anger of a teenage kid towards his/her parents, I can totally relate!!!
