Song Description
This song touches on all the unnecessary craziness around us. I hate it when people put words in my mouth and suddenly I'm sucked into an endless whirlpool of "he-said-she-said". It's also about how we get fooled into thinking that staying insanely busy is the same thing as success. People need to chill out and not "Run-Around" so much. Michael Steele's bass line really moves this song along nicely. Also, I get a harmonica solo!

Lyrics
Scared Of The Door (Run-Around) (3:46)
Written by Spencer Durham
More often than less I
Find myself behind
Lies from other people's mouths
They're running around and
They waste they're minds
On problems no one's going to figure out
CHORUS
Am I the only one who can see?
What we are and what we'll never be
Seems the sun is setting down
But still we gotta run around
Run around
Seems a sense of humor
Is a wonderful thing to waste
Cause no one is laughing anymore
All the time
Inside your walls
Has made you
Scared of the door
CHORUS
All the time inside your walls
Has made you scared of the door
Am I the only one who can see?
What we are and what we'll never be
