Marathon Runner |
| When I was a boy of seventeen |
| I know it’s mean |
| But I, I told my friend to give up on her dreams |
| She hated me |
| But I knew dreams were for the best of us |
| Not for the rest of us |
| And I, I didn’t want to share with anyone |
| I need a way to sing the greatest dance |
| And make them laugh |
| I could win the wars, or lose the battles too |
| Whichever’s true |
| I am living other people’s lives |
| I can’t stop putting on other people’s clothes |
| I love them 'til I leave |
| I am a marathon runner |
| And my legs are sore |
| And I’m anxious to see what I’m running for |
| I am a hot air balloon on a sailboat |
| I would make this my home if I’d learn to float |
| So take my treasures |
| Take my earthly life |
| I’ll try to cry |
| I will live without the things I love the best |
| So hold them to your chest |
| I will lose my faces, lose my stolen wigs |
| The heads of kings |
| I will run until I know what to believe |
| I am a marathon runner |
| And my legs are sore |
| And I’m anxious to see what I’m running for |
| I am a hot air balloon on a sailboat |
| I would make this my home if I’d learn to float |
| I am a marathon runner |
| And my legs are sore |
| And I’m anxious to see what I’m running for |
| I am a hot air balloon on a sailboat |
| I would make this my home if I’d learn to float |
