Faster Than Light

Intro

Cold air

Skin to skin

Verse 1

Midnight on the M25

Rain cuts through the windscreen

Hollow faces in the rearview

I have been here before

Wasted hours

Wasted names

I keep driving through the static of my mind

Pre-Chorus

And I feel it coming closer

Feel it under my skin

Closer

Chorus

Faster than the morning light

Running from what I can't fight

Faster

Faster than the falling night

Trying to leave myself behind

Verse 2

Blue-grey eyes in the dashboard glow

Counting exits on the motorway

I know every road leads nowhere

But nowhere knows my name today

Pale hands

Grip the wheel

And the tyres sing their shivering refrain

Pre-Chorus

And I feel it coming closer

Feel it under my skin

Closer

Chorus

Faster than the morning light

Running from what I can't fight

Faster

Faster than the falling night

Trying to leave myself behind

Bridge

Northbound

To nowhere

Southbound

To sleep

Every road I ever took

Was just a promise I couldn't keep

Chorus

Faster than the morning light

Running from what I can't fight

Faster

Faster than the falling night

Trying to leave myself behind
