lyrics

Yo, what is that, up in the sky?
The signal appears when the twilight dies
Yo, what is that, up in the sky?
I try to make it out as the engine cries

The song of metal drowns out my heartbeat
Listen as I come up on my street
My eyes widen as the pistons cry
I stare straight ahead as I pass my street by
My eyes narrow as the engine bleeds
I pass on by and increase my speed

I press hard to the metal
I begin to feel better
I break the fetter
Love may die, but speed is forever

Fire-minds and speed collide
Ride the roaring steel bride
Fiends lurk late, cobra-strike-straight
Death star set to detonate

Tonight's lights are as one
Asserts the growling metal nun
The binding ties that come undone
At this rate, I outpace the sun
Ahead are Seiji and Lou Reed
I pass them by and increase my speed

I press hard to the metal
I begin to feel better
I break the fetter
Love may die, but speed is forever

I press hard to the metal
I begin to feel better
Outpace the pacesetter
Milk expires, but speed is forever

Mon sang comme treacle
Fin du siecle
It's now or never
Love may die, but speed is forever
