lyrics

Is this the one?
Is this the one, I've been looking for?
been so long

Yea I've been running running running running,
catch my drift?

i've been running running running running,
suits the restless

And every time I try it,
say my very best,
yea I lose myself
(I lose myself).


I'll hide a little piece,
stir up a little greed,
leave out a little me,
give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.

I'll hide a little piece,
stir up a little greed,
leave out a little me,
give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.

Give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.

Give up the beat,
give up the beat.

Yea if i say it enough,
is this the one?
(Is this the one?
Is this the one?)

Been so long
since I looked at all.

Oh yea I've been running running running running,
catch my drift?

I've been running running running running,
suits the restless.

And every time I try it,
say my very best,
yea I lose myself
(I lose myself).

I'll hide a little piece,
stir up a little greed,
leave out a little me,
give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.

I'll hide a little piece,
stir up a little greed,
leave out a little me,
give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.

Give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.

Give up the beat,
give up the beat,
give up the beat.
