Life has its secrets, the young and the old
A mixture of nations are going to go
Once you're prepearing, the sweat and the strain
Of all the contenders who would remain
Get down on your mark, you're ready to start
With a bittersweet tension that pumps through your heart
All at the ready, it's clear on the field
The crowds are all waiting, it's kill or be killed
* Run...well, time ain't waiting
Run...there'll be no hesitating
Run...well, you know you've got to make it
You've got to run for your life
Run...well,Time ain't waiting
Run...there'll be no hesitating
Run...well, you know you've got to make it
You've got to go, run for your life
You're going for glory, the wind at your side
Forsaking endurance to lengthen your stride
The last quarter-mile, it could bring you success
Or make you or break you, be one of the best
Well, if you give all, there's so much more
You know you can break down all the doors
Can you see the end in sight
You've got a chance to win the fight
* repeat twice
Go on, run for your life
You've got to run for your life
