lyrics

Moving at the speed of darkness
Light can’t keep up with me
Silence starts an argument
There will be no apology

A crowd of voices
Making noise it’s
Rhyme without a scheme
Pitch and timbre
Split and splintered
There’s no harmony

The more I know, the less I know
The more I know nothing
That’s me

Moving at the speed of darkness
Night hits, eyes wide open
Mountains, madmen
At it again

Moving at the speed of darkness
What’s next?
Angels, insects?
There’s no difference
Where does it end?

Maybe this doesn’t end
Maybe when the sun goes down
The fools like me rush in

Moving at the speed of darkness
Ruining a concept that I thought was constant
Now I can’t sleep, strung out like an anarchist
Running out of options, pacing the apartment

Pull the closet door off the hinges
Night becomes carnivore, tearing at the fringes
Subtle whisper, revving engine
Double tunnel vision, I’m on a collision

With the black dog scratching at the window
I should let the beast in, I should call a chemist
Mother help me, this must be the deep-end
Wonder when I went off, wonder how long it’s been

Lucid now but in a blink
I’m underground, under the sink
That’s me

Maybe this doesn’t end

Moving at the speed of darkness
Faster than a breath of light
Shadows are growing black ivy
Right up the walls that I climb

Seems like the clocks crawling backwards
Seems like the sandman is gone
Feels like a film that’s on repeat
Like there’s no end to the song

I’ve been moving at the speed of darkness
Just a little too long
