The Runners
The Naked and Famous Lyrics

High just like the runners
Feeling elated and empowered, like athletes in their prime

We survived under crystal skies
We made it through tough times, perhaps under clear and hopeful conditions

Silver tides, whipping winds and shore lines
The imagery of natural forces, possibly leading to a sense of awe or insignificance

Grows just like a grape vine
The progression of something in a natural, organic way

We align weather-beaten spines
Coming together despite external hardships and difficulties

Settle scores, we just want to be adored
Trying to resolve conflicts and be appreciated or recognized

I am still clinging to
Holding onto something meaningful or important

These signs that I hope to find
Searching for meaning or guidance in specific symbols or messages

A heart no home can hold
A passionate or restless spirit that cannot be tied down

The hole we left behind
The longing or sadness associated with a loss or departure

I feel your body right here
Sensing the presence or essence of someone or something, even without physical contact

It takes on any shape
Manifesting in different ways or forms, depending on the situation or context

This place that made me run
The location or situation that motivated one to move or change

And gave me every reason to
Providing the inspiration or impetus for a significant action or decision

Stay
Remaining in a given place or situation

In the rain
Enduring the hardships or sorrows, perhaps with a sense of cleansing or renewal

Caught in the reminder
Being reminded of something painful or significant

Will I sleep? Will I beg for peace?
Questioning whether one will find rest or solace from the reminders

Leave the reckless hearts (leave the reckless hearts)
Separating from those who act impulsively or carelessly

And find the little spark (and find the little spark)
Discovering the small source of hope or inspiration that can drive one forward

To lead you through the dark
Having guidance or support during difficult or uncertain times

When you fall apart
Experiencing emotional or mental breakdowns, perhaps due to stress or trauma

My ears are ringing to these
Hearing sounds or echoes that might be symbolic or haunting

Summers not quite defined
A season or time that lacks clarity or definition

Stay
Enduring the hardships or sorrows, perhaps with a sense of cleansing or renewal

In the rain
Enduring the hardships or sorrows, perhaps with a sense of cleansing or renewal

Stay
Remaining in a given place or situation

In the rain
Enduring the hardships or sorrows, perhaps with a sense of cleansing or renewal
