THE LONG RUN   (B. Hüppin / SUISA)

This boy's just looked in the mirror
And he found that he has changed
When he sees the younger generation
He don't want to be like them anymore
They're living fast, here today, gone tomorrow
Their excitement never lasts
Where will they be thirty years down the road
Just remembering their past?

(Chorus)
In the long run
Eventually, the lies will rust
In the long run
I can be all, all I wanna be

He knew a girl, she was just seventeen
Perfect body, teeth and skin
She was a queen, maybe even a goddess
Admired by everyone in her little world
But they'd just made her to appear like that
It was nothing that she really was
And inside there was nothing left at all
When she quit, it all went to dust
