I run
I feel at ease
I could get away with it
I run, it's okay
And nothing weighs me down
I am in the stride
I run, it feels good
I run for the sake of running
I've never won
But yet tonight
I keep up with the pace
By being careful
I can finish first
If my heart doesn't go too fast
Oh if my heart doesn't go too fast
If my heart doesn't go too fast
Oh if my heart doesn't go too fast

I can start
But I must not start
Twenty-five laps
I need to attack on the twenty-fourth
I watch the eighteenth and the fourth
So I know they would like to trap me
I leave the inside lane to free myself
I feel good
I speed up a bit
The pace
They need to drop off
One by one
I clench my fists

I run
I seek a bit of air
No one takes over
I run, I'm in pain
I lean back
I'm afraid of drowning
Behind me, I hear the sea
Pushed by the waves
The crowd has risen
My feet sink into the sand
Someone overtakes me
Saltwater in my eyes
I can't even tell who it is
I can't take it anymore, it's going too fast
I can't take it anymore, it's going too fast
I can't take it anymore, it's going too fast
I can't take it anymore, it's going too fast

Ten thousand meters
There's always one last lap
In life, one last day
One lap too many
One lap too many

I've lost everything, it's going too fast
I can't take it anymore, it's going too fast...
