Troy Kingi - Picking Up Speed lyrics

Picking up speed heading straight
Towards a solid wall
No illusions spill your contents on the floor
How can you have an open
Book without an open door? Dark approaches
Who will mind the children when
You keep on falling off?

The armed figurine is closing fast
Oh, have you got the time to fade away?
I'm running from the faces of the past
That why not everybody should have a say

Sinking down fast to where
The colours disappear
Despair is hiding in my pocket full
Of words that can't communicate

I'm bound by the promise of the sun
I'm lost out at sea without a cause

I can't see my baby anymore
When the powers that be keep
On stealing all the light
Of even the darkest night
Getting hazy, eyes are all but closed
Am I close to where I was a day before?

Expending energy on things that I'll regret
I'm burning up the wick on both ends
Now my table is on fire

I'm running out of time can't find a buyer
Rush into a void I can't escape

I can't see my baby anymore
When the powers that be keep
On stealing all the light
Of even the darkest night
Getting hazy, eyes are all but closed
Am I close to where I was a day before?

To where I was a day before?

I can't see my baby anymore
When the powers that be keep
On stealing all the light
Of even the darkest night
Getting hazy, eyes are all but closed
Am I close to where I was a day before?
