lyrics

As I approach this finish line
You were only a speck of dust
Lost somewhere ahead or behind
And I sat not to rest but to wonder what my footsteps left
It was hard to tell in the morning mist

All I know is the race is over
And I have no proof it began
We lost ourselves, our fiction selves
And now the race is ran

Unexpected expectations
Nothing matters at this end
We stopped moving our feet
Our shiny shoes are useless
And it tastes like defeat
But the heavy breathing is gone
The sigh of relief takes its place
I’ve forgotten most of everything
And now the race is won

We have nothing lying on our chests
Only ghostly echoes in our heads
Quietly walking on
And now the race is done
