Rising runner
Missed by endless sender, never coming back,
Rising runner
Never coming back, ever running over

Rising runner
You're missed by the endless sender
Howling winds dig in your ears
Steely cold and never getting warm

Hell's bells, you're alive

[shouting nonsense words]

On and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on

Treading lightly, coloured stones
Often losing sight of goals
Embracing patterns long grown old
Leaving space is hard to fold
