I waded through the darkest fields you'd imagine
Your pretty face sketched on the barrel of my gun
And i know you'l be the first to welcome me
When i climb into eternity
Oh,oh

The forest always kept us warm
Bur it doesnt feel like home anymore
And i know there's bigger mountains where you are
And a better climate for my heart
Oh,oh

I've been racing the clock
And i've run out of steem
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms

Though many battles i have won
I lost to many friends i could count on
And i know they'l be the first to welcome me
When i parachute into eternity
Oh,oh

I've been racing the clock
And i've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
but my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms

And the rain beat down on the rooftops
But there was no sound,
there was no sound
And all my friends and familly carried me
they carried me home
Carried me home

I've been racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms
I've been racing the clock
And i've run out of steam
I am ready for my final synphony
Oh my body is weak
But my sould is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms
Oh, oh

  • the new single!

  • Really? Oh, that makes me so happy. This song is so great <3333, and better than Superhuman touch lyricaly and musically, in my opinion.

  • This has to be one of the most deeply emotive songs this amazing band has ever written.

  • that must be true, although I didn't listen whole Athlete's discography. When I first heard this song, I was very amazed by lyrics. This song should be a big hit, if you ask me.

  • just ...perfect!!!!!!!

  • wheee!!! i finally FOUND IT!!!! after sooo long! :) *sigh

  • With all the chaos that's happening in Libya, this song came to mind.

  • Vampire Diaries is giving me loads of new music!!

  • This song should be played on the 11 of the 11 its sooo powereful ;)

  • @topgearkid08 Same I only found them because of that Doctor who episode because chances is a brilliant song but this one just goes overboard its amazing. Athlete are such an underrated band they are probably my fave band now!!!

  • This song is like no other.

  • This songs about his grandad or someone who was in the war. The lead singer's uncle, Mr Potts, came to my school last year and told us about it in history.

  • I love this song so, so much. Recently I found the acoustic version which is even better....

    Love Athlete!

  • I love Athlete .. Their songs are all amazing but this has to be one of the best yet.. Can't wait to see them live in December :) <3
