Speed of Darkness (Acoustic Version)
One, two, three, four
Bury me in silence 'cause 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 call love
Who said it only rains from the heavens above?
The speed of darkness lights our way
We set our course for America
No bitterness will bite this tongue
The speed of darkness has begun, 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
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 has begun
You tore my 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 a beat to kill a heart
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
The speed of darkness has begun
Bury me in silence 'cause 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 call love
Who said it only rains from the heavens above?
The speed of darkness lights our way
We set our course for America
No bitterness will bite this tongue
The speed of darkness has begun, 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
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 has begun
You tore my 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 a beat to kill a heart
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
The speed of darkness has begun
