Speed Of Dark
The bodys singing without speaking.
You bit your brass ring off like a monster,
wouldnt leave you alone.
You skinned the bastard to his bones in case you got cold.
Normally sent with a dream,
I had to laugh when I woke to the sound of the gun.
That was the best nightmare that I just woke up from.
Normally sent with a heart attack,
all your attempts were canonized.
Blessed with a wreck of a heart of lead,
I broke my back to spite my spine.
Delightful ring around your neck, you fool them all.
Dont I feel so goddamn worthless.
Ill bet that took all of your last nerve,
but youre used to this.
its not plugged in, but the phone is ringing.
Times up for devouring, your appeals waning.
You want to right the wrongs,
but you chewed up everyone that you spit on.
Sometimes halcyon weeks make me believe
I should be relieved enough.
You were the best nightmare that I just woke up from.
The last night that I waited on
(Youll lose your sleep in time)
Your mind knows what your body wants
(Youll lose your step in time)
You move so fast sometimes.
I fell so far behind.
Youll lose your step in time.
