The Speed Of Pain lyrics

They slit our throats

Like we were flowers

And our milk has been

Devoured

When you want it, it goes away too fast

Times you hate it, it always seems to last

Just remember, when you think you're free

The crack inside your fucking heart is me

I wanna outrace the speed of pain

For another day

I wanna outrace the speed of pain

For another day

I wish I could sleep

But I can't lay on my back

Because there's a knife

For every day that I've known you

When you want it, it goes away too fast

Times you hate it, it always seems to last

Just remember, when you think you're free

The crack inside your fucking heart is me

I wanna outrace the speed of pain

For another day

I wanna outrace the speed of pain

For another day

Lie to me, cry to me, give to me, I would

Lie with me, die with me, give to me, I would

Keep all your secrets wrapped in dead hair, for always

Keep all your secrets wrapped in dead hair, for always

Lie to me, cry to me, give to me, I would

Lie with me, die with me, give to me, I would

I hope at least we die holding hands, for always

I hope at least we die holding hands, for always

I hope at least we die holding hands
