My love, I am the speed of sound
|
I left the motherless, fatherless
|
Their souls dangling inside out from their mouths
|
But it's never enough
|
I want you
|
|
Carve your name across three counties
|
Ground it in with bloody hides
|
Their broken necks will lie in the ditch
|
Till you stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it
|
Stop this madness
|
I want you
|
|
I have waited with a glacier's patience
|
Smashed every transformer with every trailer
|
Till nothing was standing
|
Sixty five miles wide
|
Still you are nowhere, still you are nowhere
|
Nowhere in sight
|
Come out to meet me
|
Run out to meet me
|
Come into the light
|
|
Climb the boxcars to the engine
|
Through the smoke and to the sky
|
Your rails have always outrun mine
|
So I picked them up and crashed them down
|
In a moment close to now
|
Cause I miss, I miss, I miss, I miss
|
I miss, I miss, I miss, I miss
|
How you'd sigh yourself to sleep
|
When I'd rake the springtime
|
Across your sheets
|
|
My love, I am the speed of sound
|
I left the motherless, fatherless
|
Their souls dangling inside out from their mouths
|
But it's never enough
|
|
My love, I'm an owl on the sill
|
In the evening
|
But morning finds you
|
Still warm and breathing
|
|
This tornado loves you
|
What will make you believe me?
|
