lyrics

He travels fast, too fast and he knows
All of friends tell him he needs to slow
If you lived in his head, maybe you’d understand
Why he does what he does, why he says what he says

Please come fast

He lives in a room, no a box, no a tomb
No, a place without walls under a full moon
He wrote time is a song, that you can’t sing too long
A refrain we could sing all damn day long

Please come fast

This place is just too beautiful for me
And I think I’d prefer to live at lightspeed
