Sunsets

Endurance in the face of defeat, Hope when faced with inevitable darkness. Just some of the phrases that describe everyday people capable of heroism in a fallen world.

 

Sunsets

 

Evening air on my skin

As I accelerate

As my shoes wear thin

And my heart rate

Rises a beat or two

Running along thinking of you

 

The sweat on my skin

Sais I can stop any second

And the stitch in my chest lets me know I’ve gone too far

And the pain in my gut

Sais I’ve got to give up

I’m out of breath but can’t get enough

 

And I feel the sky rushing past me

As I hear you’re voice telling me:

 

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sun-sets

Before there gone

Sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets

Before there gone

 

Away

We can’t face another day

All alone

Not far from hear you roam

My friend

Waiting for me till the very end

 

The light in my eye

Asks me why do I try…

Oh try…

And my numbing heels convince me I’ve gone too far

And the voice from within

Sais I’ve reached a dead end

But I will not give in

 

And I feel the sky rushing past me

As I hear you’re voice telling me:

 

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sun-sets

Before there gone

Sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sun-sets

Before there gone

 

Don’t fall down

Im running for you

Stay high in the sky

So I’m in you’re view

Don’t fall down starting anew

Keep waiting friend cause I’m coming for you!

Don’t fall down

Im running for you

Stay high in the sky

So I’m in you’re view

Don’t fall down starting anew

Keep waiting friend cause I’m coming for you!

Don’t fall down

Im running for you

Stay high in the sky

So I’m in you’re view

Don’t fall down starting anew

Keep waiting friend cause I’m counting on you

running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sun-sets

Before there gone

Sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets, sunsets

Keep running to the sunsets

Before there gone

Author's Note

Again because these are lyrics blue = male vocalist, orange = female vocalist and black = rapping.
I thought of this song over a year ago when I was jogging in the afternoon towards the sunset. Have been meaning to write it down for ages but never got around to it until the other day. Thanks very much for reading it!

This is a wonderful song, like the way you seperated the male/female and rapping by using different colors. Well done.
