Speed of Darkness |
| Bury me in silence |
| For I’ll never hear the truth |
| My coffin will be empty |
| Cause you’ll never steal my youth |
| I was born to live beside you |
| But you tried to stop me grow |
| Now I’m living on the run |
| From all this hatred you now love |
| Who said it only rains |
| From the heavens above |
| Chorus |
| The speed of darkness lights our way |
| We set our course for America |
| No bitterness will bite my tongue |
| The speed of darkness has begun |
| It’s something of a pity |
| But you’ll never understand |
| How a boy can grow and |
| Still never be a man |
| I would trade the sun for nothing |
| And the glancing of a star |
| If you could just remember |
| Grains of dust is all we are |
| It only takes a second |
| For a beat to kill a heart |
| Chorus |
| The speed of darkness lights our way |
| We set our course for America |
| No bitterness will bite this tongue |
| I’ve reconciled with all that’s gone |
| The speed of darkness has begun |
| Only time and life will tell |
| But it’s a long way home when you’re in hell |
| Where constant demons fracture souls |
| Once a nightmare, now just lifeless ghosts |
| The speed of darkness lights our way |
| You tore this land asunder |
| But my pride will bring it back |
| I would trade the sun for nothing |
| And the glancing of a star |
| If you could just remember |
| Grains of dust is all we are |
| It only takes a second |
| For beat to kill a heart |
| Chorus |
