120mph

Raised By Wolves - 120mph

driving through the haze some random summer day
broken guardrail on pacific coast highway
traffic helicopters circle overhead
and they swarm just like vultures looking for the newly dead

driving fast 120 miles an hour
drunk on vodka and some misplaced sense of power
some doors you pass through and you can't go back again

we interrupt this show to bring you breaking news
reporters fix their hair, waiting for their cues
tow trucks and divers and police are on the way
all noise and commotion on such a summer's day

driving fast 120 miles an hour
drunk on vodka and some misplaced sense of power
sometime later on they pulled him from the sea
body bloated but he smiled
like he was on T.V.

you are a star tonight
you fell to earth like a broken satellite

things go back to normal like they always do
other scandals, bigger tragedies than you
sometimes I think I see you, in the corner of my eye
and sometimes I imagine, what it's like
what it's like to fly

desist-120 mph

voice pounds frustrates me
violates me
recreates me
velocity compounds can't get out the way
all of these words that you say
accelerate seconds to hours to days

chorus
i will slow you down
cut you down to size
i must slow you down

1 2 0 m p h
breathe and totalize
you verbalize
to traumatize
erase me
under weight and size
all of these words that you say
accelerate seconds to hours to days

chorus
