about

The London Marathon may have been cancelled this year, so we're holding our own marathon which will fill the void...

New Single 'Marathon' - written by Matthew when he found old VHS footage of The London '88 in the back of his parent's shed.

lyrics

Marathon

Started off a walk away from mundane
Early morning rise and a factory line with views all the same
Silver lined by a fortune worth the wait
though it won't be long till the wealth is gone and well falls away

ended up alone as far as Margate
where the sea it ends the water tends to harness our weight
Silver lined by a fortune to evade
i would love to swim but i fear this time that I may not be saved

Marathon is all i need, serotonine high and a finish line where we can both meet
Marathon is all i see, Camberwell was fine but I've realised there's more to this scene

Who wants to run forever?
Everyone seems the same
