Steeplechase Songtext
von Valient Thorr

You better stretch your legs real good
The start of this one′s in the air

Well I been running, well I been running
Well I been training for fifteen years
Get ready 'cause I don′t care

Where will we rest when all our races have been run?
It seems our focus has been skewed since we begun
No time to go back and question all those things we did
We're falling behind in this race, now pay attention kid

Wake up, wake up, I'm coming for you
Closer, closer with each stride
All the hurdles in my way
Are cleared with precision and pride


I hope you got a good night′s sleep
The start of life′s now on the track
Well I been running, I been running
Well I been training for fifteen years
I ain't ever coming back

There are many people in my life that I don′t know
It's hard to tell the difference who′s a friend and who's a foe
Seems like I been running in circles, no one there to tell me stop
Give me a destination and I′ll race you straight to the top

First heat and we're off
Now there's no turning back
Traversing distance at great speed
My feet are lifting off the track

I hope you stretched your legs real good
Everything is on the track
Well I been running, I been running
Well I been training for a hundred years
I ain′t ever coming back
