The Speed of Light Lyrics by ​csx42

Take Flight*

2024

[Intro]
A tugging feeling
Grabs the flawed
Pulling from nowhere
Falling facade
The ties of time are bound beyond
The edge of the night
It seems impossible to get there
[Chorus]
Like I would have to go the speed of light
Do whatever it takes
To go back a couple hundred days
To a time when from this life I made
Something beautiful
But the speed of light
There's nothing even close
It's the one pace that nothing evеr goes
Can it tame the chronological?
Who am I to know?
[Pre-Chorus]
Hatе to live with it
But I'll rise above
Wish I could fix it
Bring back the love
Meet the horizon
Transcend the night
Oh, I'd do anything to start it all over
[Chorus]
I'd even chase the speed of light
And wipe those long-gone tears
I'd go back just a couple dozen years
To a time from which I then could steer
Into something beautiful
But the speed of light
Is so far out of reach
It's a damn shame I'm just a simple being
I'd be gone by a couple galaxies by now if it were up to me
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
If only I could go the speed of light
And turn back the clock on my own life
Clean the slate, a future new and bright
Wouldn't it be nice?
But then again, the things I have to lose
It just might be worth seeing it through
There's still time to turn this life into
Something beautiful
