Fast

(album: These Are The Days - 2017)

Life's a hundred and five on an interstate flying
In a jet-black ride, running red lights
With two feet down, stomping the gas
Fast

It's a roller coaster clicking and climbing
Holding your breath thinking you're gonna die
Screaming the whole way down with your hands up high
Fast

You can't slow it down
You get one go 'round
We're all hurring up and trying to make it last

And we hold on tight
To this dear sweet life
Spinning our wheels with all we got
Trying to stop that ticking clock from going past
Fast

It's black and white in a picture frame
Funny-haired dudes in high-rise jeans
And catching yourself saying
Boy, times sure have changed, and
Fast

It's three, it's ten, it's seventeen
Twenty-one and can't believe
Spitting image of you and me's a man
Fast

It's forever getting to 18 weeks in a hospital
Hooked to cold machine
and finally hearing the sound of that little heart beat
Fast

You can't slow it down
You get one go 'round
It's a million little moments in your hands

We hold on tight
To this dear sweet life
Spinning our wheels with all we've got
Trying stop that ticking clock from going past
Fast, so fast, yeah

It's that split decision you're gonna make
A second chance you might not get to take
and knowing whatever you do you can't turn back

Hope you always take that long way home
Slow down when you smell the roses
And whatever's making you mad, man, let it go
Fast

It's that midnight call
It's your worst fear
Momma crying' you need to get here
Please be safe, leave as soon as you can
Fast

It's a hundred and five on an interstate flying
In a jet-black ride, running red lights
Hoping to get there in time to hold his hand
And say I love you, dad... damn
Fast

(Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Love and family, faith and hope)

It's gonna go fast
Get all you can
...

It's goes so fast
