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]
|
