Runner is the first single taken from the forthcoming album 'Used to Write', produced by Ricky Maymi (of The Brian Jonestown Massacre)
lyrics
finally found my tracksuit in a sea of dirty jeans,
tousled polyester cotton, i'd almost forgotten thee
started power-walking and i'm languishing again,
thinking about the neighbours staring, vow i will not care for them
because i'm true
and i'll run to the ocean, the only way i know to change your mind
i'll run until your heart is mine
trying to will my blistered feet and weary aching bones
know i've got to look the part now, know i've got to be alone
purgatory's started for the gluttony of past
i only want your longing looks, looking at my longer strides
and i'll run from the suburbs, the only way i know to change your mind
i'll run until your heart is mine
i shall only look at you with envy from asunder
for i am no adulterer and you are not my lover
