๐ Lyrics
One, two, three, four
Open your door, cars fly by
Down at the corner store the clerk's got a black eye
Junkies wait underneath his sign
Easy through the crowd, don't give 'em a dime
Take a left on Wilson while the sirens wail
Mother covers daughter's ears with her own pigtails
Up at the church through electric eyes
Down on heavy bells one man cries
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light, alright
Duck 'round the corner, into the attic
Couple kids from the mountain makin' out in the valley
Dusk comin' over like you seen it before
It's blue and it's red and it's yellow and it's orange
There's colors you can't name, things you'll never change
Blocks in the city that'll never rearrange
Your crying does no good, neither does your shame
There's a bigger heart beatin' than you can understand
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light, alright
There are forces at work here
That we can't control, my dear
There are forces at work here
I keep up with the speed of light
That we can't control, my dear
I keep up with the speed of light
Look me in the eyes, my dear
I Keep up with the speed of light
And there are forces at work here, yeah
I keep up with the speed of light
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light, alright
Open your door, cars fly by
Down at the corner store the clerk's got a black eye
Junkies wait underneath his sign
Easy through the crowd, don't give 'em a dime
Take a left on Wilson while the sirens wail
Mother covers daughter's ears with her own pigtails
Up at the church through electric eyes
Down on heavy bells one man cries
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light, alright
Duck 'round the corner, into the attic
Couple kids from the mountain makin' out in the valley
Dusk comin' over like you seen it before
It's blue and it's red and it's yellow and it's orange
There's colors you can't name, things you'll never change
Blocks in the city that'll never rearrange
Your crying does no good, neither does your shame
There's a bigger heart beatin' than you can understand
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light, alright
There are forces at work here
That we can't control, my dear
There are forces at work here
I keep up with the speed of light
That we can't control, my dear
I keep up with the speed of light
Look me in the eyes, my dear
I Keep up with the speed of light
And there are forces at work here, yeah
I keep up with the speed of light
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light
I keep up with the speed of light
No one can see but I'm burning bright
I didn't choose to take the ride
I keep up with the speed of light, alright
