Después del éxito menor de Gone Up In Flames en el 2005 y la exposición que les dio abrirle a Coldplay, Morning Runner estaban listos para el gran golpe. Este llego en la forma de Burning Benches, single que rompió facilmente en el top 40 británico y parecía que todo iba viento en popa. Lastima que solo pareció. Pero bueno, la canción es buenísima, y en vivo suena increíble.
Let us make amends,
were not overly good friends,
but its not Heaven
without you.
You can have it all,
well see Mountains fall,
but its not Heaven
without you.
Its the symphony distorting,
when were not talking,
but its not Heaven,
without you.
Theres just something different,
With the air about you,
The signs, the shapes, the numbers,
none of them give me a clue
You can have it all
And im not Burning Benches
cos the ash would make me choke
It was me who always spluttered
every time we spoke
you can have it all
