Another Day / Marathon
[Part I: Another Day]
[Verse 1: R.J.]
Sometimes I sit, alone in my thoughts
Worrying about what the future holds
Will I ever get to explore the high roads?
Or will I be stuck in this house all my life?
[Bridge: R.J.]
Is there a horizon I can reach?
[Verse 2: R.J.]
Sometimes I cry, wondering why?
How did I deserve things being like this?
Every hole I patch opens a new abyss
Me against the world, one against a billion
[Pre-Chorus: R.J.]
Before you even know it, it's one against a trillion
Someone fucking help me, I'm locked up in this prison
[Chorus: R.J.]
Tomorrow's around the corner
I have to keep on fighting another day (another day)
The pain keeps lasting longer
I have to keep on fighting another day (another day)
I can't end the story, before a chapter two
In due time those words will come to you
Those songs that are coming, their words will echo true
No more bullshit radio play, here's the fucking cue
[Spoken: R.J.]
There will always be a chapter two!
I'll find mine, and you can find yours
[Chorus: R.J.]
Tomorrow's around the corner
I have to keep on fighting another day (another day)
The pain keeps lasting longer
I have to keep on fighting another day (another day)
I can't end the story before a chapter two
In due time those words will come to you
Those songs that are coming, their words will echo true
No more bullshit radio play, here's the fucking cue
[Part II: Marathon]
[Verse 1: R.J.]
Good morning, i say to the sun
That's covered by layers of clouds
And I feel it, the bitter cold
Shivers down my weakened spine
I walk outside and look around
Something I've lost, and it can't be found
Then I start running, and my legs won't stop
[Pre-Chorus: R.J.]
I want to reach my goal
But hell swallows me whole
[Chorus: R.J.]
I'm running a marathon
To find my way back home
Lost in all my sorrows
Can I chase down tomorrow?
A better me waiting at the finish
Hoping I work for all my wishes
Will i ever meet this version of me?
Or will I fall behind and have nobody?
[Verse 2: Indigo Drift]
I'm rushing really hard right now
And I cannot stop for anything now
I could lose everything I've worked too hard for
So I gotta run 'til I can soar
I'm doing what I can to keep myself on track
If I fumble now, there'll be no way back
So I gotta do everything that it takes
To stay on the path laying in my wake
[Pre-Chorus: R.J.]
I want to reach my goal
But hell swallows me whole
[Chorus: R.J.]
I'm running a marathon
To find my way back home
Lost in all my sorrows
Can I chase down tomorrow?
A better me waiting at the finish
Hoping I work for all my wishes
Will i ever meet this version of me?
Or will I fall behind and have nobody?
