Текст песни: Marathon Runner + перевод

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
