The Loneliness Of A Middle Distance Runner lyrics

I ll take a second of the day to think about the things that we have Done this year
The dog lies down, the pouring rain
I m underneath the smoker s railway arch again
The future s looking colourful
It s the colour of blood, chaos and corruption of a happy soul
A happy soul will
Ride in the field
Till the rain dies down

The railway ticket states a destination
But it doesn t mean that we will show
There s a fork upon the line
We paid the guard to switch the sign, and off we go
The future s looking wonderful
It s the wonder of a businessman s conspiracy to sell your wares
And no one cares
Oh you care, I know
You care, I forgot for a while

On a sulky afternoon spent in dispute
You ll give yourself a headache, boy
So I take revenge in stories and dreaming of the time when
We re on stage
"Have you seen The Loneliness Of A Middle Distance Runner?"
When he stops the race and looks around
I left the stage
"You ve seen it now"
I walked to the station
I wish you follow me tonight
