The Runner
When the house is still quiet and the day ain't but a promise
He puts his running shoes on
Early morning air hits his face like a bullet
He takes a deep breath and then he's gone
Into the silent suburb that he now calls home
He feels concrete shiver under his feet
Far away the fields burn to gold as if to say
They're the promise he once made but didn't keep
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He ran yesterday like he runs today
Cars, houses, people blend into the same thing
The world gets blurrier the faster he goes
Adrenalin starts pumping, sweat pours down his face
His heart is racing like it's never raced before
Like a one-way journey or a mad escape
No looking back, the future will catch up
Out there the horizon like a line to cross
No one will ever try harder than he does
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He ran yesterday like he runs today
The air's too loud to hear people saying
That someday we all run out of road
When his muscles start aching
He tries to go faster than he already goes
But he is so out of breath sometimes
He is so out of breath sometimes
He is so out of breath sometimes
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He's running away...
He puts his running shoes on
Early morning air hits his face like a bullet
He takes a deep breath and then he's gone
Into the silent suburb that he now calls home
He feels concrete shiver under his feet
Far away the fields burn to gold as if to say
They're the promise he once made but didn't keep
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He ran yesterday like he runs today
Cars, houses, people blend into the same thing
The world gets blurrier the faster he goes
Adrenalin starts pumping, sweat pours down his face
His heart is racing like it's never raced before
Like a one-way journey or a mad escape
No looking back, the future will catch up
Out there the horizon like a line to cross
No one will ever try harder than he does
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He ran yesterday like he runs today
The air's too loud to hear people saying
That someday we all run out of road
When his muscles start aching
He tries to go faster than he already goes
But he is so out of breath sometimes
He is so out of breath sometimes
He is so out of breath sometimes
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He ran yesterday like he runs today
He's running away...
