Run

School

Work

Girlfriend

Friends 

Family

Church 

College

Scholarships 

Life

It all weighs you down

Like syrup on pancakes 

Oh, don't forget to eat right 

But, for 19 minutes,

None of that matters 

All that matters

Is the guy in front of you

The guy you're going to catch up to

For those 19 minutes 

Everyone on the course is the same

Well not really

Some are faster,

Some are bigger,

But we all run 

We move 

Like a snake

Coiling through the course

Unstoppable

We sweat it all away

Cry it all away 

So run,

Run until you collapse

Run until all of your problems are behind you 

Just

Run
