Jim Beckwith - Balance Lyrics

Living in the wild
Surviving in the city
Screams of a child should but find no pity...

I find my mind still racing
Desperate and getting nowhere
Answers to earth are found in heaven
On the basis of need-to-know there...

We're making some money
Spending our time
Filling the days and wondering why
Juggling values
And looking for space
It's the Balance of Boredom and the Rat Race

Got to get ahead
Can't fall behind
(I'm so behind)
I wanna get close to even before I die...

Can't you see the madness in my mind?
Won't you see the sadness in my soul?
The tension in my jaw won't loose the laughter
Yes, this, but always gladness is my goal

Can you see the wonder
The puzzle on my face?
It's the Balance of Boredom and the Rat Race
