Review of The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (1962) by Gordon T — 10 Apr 2011
LYRICS BY IRON MAIDEN, et. al.!!!!!!!!
The tough of the track.
With the wind.
And the rain that's beating down on your back.
Your heart's beating loud.
And goes on getting louder.
And goes on even more 'til the.
Sound is ringing in your head.
With every step you tread.
And every breath you take.
Determination.
Makes you run, never stop.
Got to win, got to run 'til you drop.
Keep the pace, hold the race.
Your mind is getting clearer.
You're over half way there.
But the miles they never seem to end.
As if you're in a dream.
Not getting anywhere.
It seems so futile.
Run on and on.
Run on and on.
The loneliness of the long distance runner.
I've got to keep running the course.
I've got to keep running and win at all costs.
I've got to keep going, be strong.
Must be so determined and push myself on.
Run over stiles across fields.
Turn to look at who's on your heels.
Way ahead of the field.
The line is getting nearer but do.
You want the glory that goes.
You reach the final stretch.
Ideals are just a trace.
You feel like throwing the race.
It's all so futile.
Run on and on.
Run on and on.
The loneliness of the long distance runner.
