Rush "Marathon" lyrics

Marathon

It’s not how fast you can goThe force goes into the flowIf you pick up the beatYou can forget about the heatMore than just survivalMore than just a flashMore than just a dotted lineMore than just a dash

It’s a test of ultimate willThe heartbreak climb uphillGot to pick up the paceIf you want to stay in the raceMore than just blind ambitionMore than just simple greedMore than just a finish lineMust feed this burning needIn the long run

Chorus:From first to lastThe peak is never passedSomething always fires the light that gets in your eyesOne moment’s high, and glory rolls on byLike a streak of lightningThat flashes and fades in the summer sky

Your meters may overloadYou can rest at the side of the roadYou can miss a strideBut nobody gets a free ride

More than high performanceMore than just a sparkMore than just the bottom lineOr a lucky shot in the darkIn the long run

Chorus

You can do a lot in a lifetimeIf you don’t burn out too fastYou can make the most of the distanceFirst you need enduranceFirst you’ve got to last…

Chorus
