Running The Loping Lyrics - Smog

I lay on the bed in the dark 

Laughing at things i think of 

Getting off on the pornography of my past 

Lighting matches and dropping them 

Into a wet glass 

It's summer now and it's hot 

And the sweat pours out 

And the air is the same as my body 

And i breathe my body inside out 

With sunlight around my skin turns brown 

And you wouldn't know me from your pa 

Or Adam or Allah 

But I haven't changed 

No I haven't changed 

Day is all that resolves 

All we need is here on earth 

About every other day 

Scratchmarks on my knees since I've been running 

The bramble lee 

When I'd much rather be wanting to be 

Running the loping 

Peace on your hand 

Don't be silly 

But peace on my body 

When tired and beaten 

All we need is here on earth 

About every other day 

Oh to live in the country 

With a chicken and those other things 

Where the hills loping 

Where the dress and the hair in the river 

Undulating 

To take a wife and no paper 

Never again to wonder 

Did that rapper rape her 

All we need is here on earth 

About every other day
