Speed Kills

speed kills, but beauty lives forever
speed thrills, but beauty knows your name
i fell ill inside eternal winter, winter
and stood still beside eternal flame

and when i ride
with you tonight
we can move
at the speed of light
with all i'd asked
and all i'd pray
the last rose of summer would stay

first time that i ever saw you
crashing hard thru days of pain
you were one of god's children
left to cry out in the rain
waiting to be saved again

'cause when i ride
with you tonight
we can move
at the speed of light
and all i'd ask
and all i pray
the last rose of summer
the last rose of summer
the last rose of summer would stay


when i ride
with you tonight
we can move
at the speed of light
forever young
forever blind
into the stars
we rock tonight

Lady Shallot

into the icy winds shadow's vale
aloft on the currents of time and fate
the time had come and gone to just contemplate
and with a last desperate gasp she set sail

the tapestry that held her muse
hours of her lonliness entwined
hung over the ships side, never more to be used
maybe even in her coffin lined

camelot never knew, never sensed her coming
the candles were hushed by the gale
fortelling her end in silent ache
but at last her heart would prevail
and she would be free forever in her prison break

tears did not stain her cheeks
nor did her crying fill the air
but her singing of release rose unto the castle peaks
and her wistfulness was all that was left in her frozen stare

it was not the end of the journey that made ammends
nor the travelled watery way
but the escape that comprehends
what Lady Shallot had conquered that day




If
by chance...
I should find my way through
the dark malaise
of this lost love stricken world
I will leave a path...
of starlitten byways
that all who desire a way out
can find...
and if not...
I will meet all who...
like me did not make it
in the realm of night...

with the sugar sickness
you spy the kidnap kid
who kids you to oblivion

it's the perfect hassle
for the perfumed kiss
he makes you miss him more than home

you love him
you love him more than this
you love him
and you cannot, you can't resist

you love him
you love him for yourself
you love him
and no one, no one else

past sidewalk ashes
a last lovers arc
you come apart to intertwine

it was all so simple
as you watched him move
across the darkness in your room

you love him
you love him for yourself
you love him
and no one, no one else

and to the winding vines
the pretty boys dive
and thru the pinhole stars
into the shadow mind

will you lose him then
on some gentle dawn
this boy is here and gone

you love him
you love him for yourself
you love him
and no one, no one else

you love him
you love him more than this
you love him
and you cannot, you can't resist

you love him
