\*Stop!

I wanna go home,  
Take off this uniform and leave the show.  
And I’m waiting in this cell because I have to know,  
Have I been guilty all this time?

_Life is a short warm moment,  
And death is a long cold rest.  
You get your chance to try,  
In the twinkling of an eye,  
Eighty years with luck or even less._

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking  
Racing around to come up behind you again  
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you’re older  
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Just works perfectly (maybe if taken just a bit too literally) with me hating running track in the winter like I am. This part pops up a lot.
