Light Speed

(Album: Illuminarium - 2021)

Baby, we're light speed
Don't look back, look at me
We'll be fine, baby
Make the jump and they'll see
Baby, we're light speed
Don't look back, look at me
Let's drive, baby
I'll sleep beside you in the freezing cold

Everything's mountains and suns, come with me I say
Let's find a river that's too much and dive in anyway
Let's earn our living
Let's scream 'till our lungs are ribbons
Like we're a punk band in a warehouse yelling, oh lord
Oh, I don't wanna be like them
I wanna live life like a runaway can
Oh, I don't wanna be like them
I wanna live life illuminated

Baby, we're light speed
Don't look back, look at me
We'll be fine, baby
Make the jump and they'll see
Baby, we're light speed
Don't look back, look at me
Let's drive, baby
I'll sleep beside you in the freezing cold

Our home is out on the run, ride with me, I say
If you find a road and chase the sun, the horizon stays in place
We'll be mud in a minute
We're brief like a handgun killing
And maybe it's a dream or it's pleading or it's hope
Oh, I don't wanna be like them
I wanna live life like a runaway can
Oh, I don't wanna be like them
I wanna live life illuminated

Baby, we're light speed
Don't look back, look at me
We'll be fine, baby
Make the jump and they'll see
Baby, we're light speed
Don't look back, look at me
Let's drive, baby
I'll sleep beside you in the freezing cold
