Long Distance Runner

"The loneliness of the long distance runner"The Tough of the trackWith the windAnd the rain that's beating down onYour backYour heart is beating loudAnd goes on getting louderAnd goes on even more'til theSound is ringing in your headWith every step you treadAnd every breath you takeDeterminationMakes you run never stopGot to win got to run ' til you dropkeep the pace on the raceYour mind is getting clearerYou are over half way thereBut the miles they never seem to endAs if you are in a dreamNot getting anywhereit seems so futileRUN ON AND ONRUN ON AND ONTHE LONELINESS OF THE LONG DISTANCE RUNNERI've got to keep the running the courseI've got to keep running and win at all costsI've got to keep going be strongMust be so determined and push myself onRun over stiles across fieldsTurn to look at who's on your heelsway ahead of the fieldsthe line is getting nearer but do you want the glory that goesyou reach the final the final stretch ideals are just a traceyou feel like throwing the raceit is all so futileIRONMAIDEN!!! SOMEWHERE IN TIME!!!
