Speed To My Side

Rollerskate Skinny


I followed them footsteps 
where they lunge the mean 
to the edge of Christ where they hoist the night 
like a closing eye 
for a lover for a lover 
I'm only here to lean 
noise flew birds through the crooked sky 
and they all said see 
speed to my side 
nobody ever told me that this sort of thing come alive 
down down back from where you came 
you've come alive too late 
the sweat shone like stars 
on the violent hands that carried them away like whispers 
from a crippled band 
are you welcome are you welcome 
do you want to be 
oh the wrecking ball of nightmares is on its way to me 
speed to my side 
nobody ever told me that this sort of thing could come alive down down back from where you came 
you've come alive too late 
speed to my side 
all for nothing lies 
anger in the eyes because I love you 
nobody ever told me that this sort of thing could come alive.
