Michael * Running on the Asphalt Lyrics

We've come together where the buildings rise,
we're crawling up where concrete meets the sky,
we walk in line.
We've come together in our daily gray,
where all our private boxes look the same,
in every possible way.
We've been running on the asphalt lately,
killing time is oh so easy,
tell me, how do we determine left from right?

I can't explain where the building rocks,
growing up where the traffic never stops,
oh the rising stars.
Sell our souls when the market's right,
shake hands as we're pulling down the blinds,
it's almost fine.
We've been running on the asphalt lately,
killing time is oh so easy,
tell me, how do we determine left from right?
We've been missing out on daylight lately,
killing time, with late night T.V,
tell me, how do we determine gray from white?
We keep on running but we're losing time,
we spill our coffee where the concrete meets the sky.
We keep on moving but we're losing ground,
we spend our money as the road keeps winding down,
and down. (( x24 ))

We've been running on the asphalt lately,
killing time is oh so easy,
tell me, how do we determine left from right?
We've been missing out on daylight lately,
killing time, with late night T.V,
tell me, how do we determine gray from white?
