every now and then
I get the urge to go
feel it in my limbs
feel it in my soul
so I breathe in deep
stretch my legs and burst through the front door
and I take off down the street fast as my feet will carry me
and its not long before I realize that
running sucks
god I hate it so much
stitches in my side
fire in my lungs
I'm so out of shape
that my body's gonna break
before I ever know for sure
what I've been running for
I can feel the world
with its eyes on me
see that slow-ass girl?
hear how hard she breathes?
suddenly I've got somethin' to prove
show those haters and misogynists they're wrong about me
so I'm pushin' through
this mantra poundin' in my head and I just can't stop thinkin'
running sucks
god I hate it so much
stitches in my side
fire in my lungs
I'm so out of shape
that my body's gonna break
before I ever know for sure
what I've been running for
woah
people do this all the time
they claim to find it so rewarding
there's this friend of mine
who runs six miles every morning
there's somethin' wrong with them
or is there somethin' wrong with me?
it fools me now and then
but every time my legs remind me
running sucks
god I hate it so much
stitches in my side
and there's a fire in my lungs
I'm so out of shape
that my body's gonna break
and I will never know for sure
what I've been running for
why am I runnin'?
why am I runnin'?
why am I runnin'?
why the hell did I do this?
