Half A Marathon Man
SONATA ARCTICA · Pariah's Child 2014 · Track 07 of 11
Written by Tony Kakko
An 89 year old man learned how to run And as he passed me by, he said "come on, son!" I really thought my bones weighted a ton As I dragged them up and down the block Now a couple of weeks have passed Gone are the makings of a lazy man
When I saw the usher of change Her flaming hair in slow-mo Gliding past my window I had to trace her down "You look like a really nice guy But can you keep up with me?" Away she ran
I'm doing everything I can To be half of a marathon man How many things can life conceal Deep in the mist everything is unreal If you believe in me, I can Become your own half a marathon man I am half of a marathon man Yea-yeah
Good morning, somebody kill me right now I've never felt this kind of a burning cold I read it somewhere, running is like a drug As for the second day I can say it is not It's bright white burning pain Bring it on, baby!
10 miles and I feel hellbent I'm gonna make sure this rainbow has an end I seem to have hit an invisible wall Trying to find out if this here endless tunnel is really A cave
So here I run between the fields I am half of a marathon man Follow the river down from the hills If I can do it, then anyone can
Now her eyes reflect my skies You can hear love in the 21 cries Of half of a marathon man
It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day, It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day, It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day, It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day, It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
So here I run between the fields I am half of a marathon man Follow the river down from the hills If I can do it, then anyone can
Now her eyes reflect my skies You can hear love in the 21 cries Of half of a marathon man
It's a beautiful It's a beautiful It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful day
It's a beautiful It's a beautiful It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful day
It's a beautiful It's a beautiful It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful day
