lyrics

Wasn't aware it was a competition.
And every word, everything is in opposition.
I want to live and leave a good name;
sometimes if feels like that's a bad thing.
It's the mouths all around, on the TV, on the phone, in the bar, in the home-
but I'm not the same, and I don't mind,
swimming a marathon all of the time.

And I think we're close to reaching land,
sending the sharks back to the deep.

The trail is clear,
but (someone's) kicking rocks over and onto smooth ground and
my feet are bare. My feet are bare.
The wind and sand are only temporary.
Though they don't seem it, they're imaginary.

Though we're tired, we're not behind,
running a marathon all of the time.

And I think we're close to reaching home,
sending the wolves back to the woods.
And I think we're close to having it all.

It's been a long run.
It's been a long time.
