The Runner’s Lament Lyrics by Fisheye (Band)

Bigger Than Your Head

2008

[Refrain]
Here comes that old feelin' again
Tellin' me I should pack it in
Tellin' me I been runnin' too hard
For too long
Sayin' that it's time to rest these weary bones
Head on home
[Verse 1]
Now when you're out there on the road
And you're really all alone
With nothing but your thoughts
And a song
Singin' in your head
Never missin' a step
Wearin' you down
[Verse 2]
Davenport you were in a cinch
I was so much younger then
But the dream breakin' five times ten
As the years drag on
Kept slippin' furthеr away til' now
I'm really sad to say it's all but gone
[Verse 3]
Austin was a stretch
A man's gotta stick out his nеck
Go out on a limb
To stay strong
You think it's right there within reach
Then you realize you ain't even halfway home
[Refrain]
Here comes that old feelin' again
Tellin' me I should pack it in
Tellin' me I been runnin' too hard
For too long
Sayin' it's time to rest these weary bones
Head on home
[Outro]
Sayin' it's time to rest these weary bones
Head on home
