Velocity Shadow (Version 2)

Verse

Cold zinc pipe and the shuddering floor

Salt in the eyes, locked at the door

One amber flash cutting through grease

Chasing the tempo, finding no peace

Pre-Chorus

Before the overhead tubes turn white

We feed the engine into the night

No looking back, no slowing down

Bury the silence under the town

Chorus

Velocity shadow, ride through the haze

Run till the halogens crack and blaze

Velocity shadow, off of the grid

Move till we break what the daylight did

Velocity shadow, out of the blind

Leaving the shape of the skin behind

Verse

Three hundred kicks in a minute flat

Black rubber soles where the water sat

Chest on the sub, shaking the frame

Sweating the hours out of the name

Pre-Chorus

Before the overhead tubes turn white

We feed the engine into the night

No looking back, no slowing down

Bury the silence under the town

Chorus

Velocity shadow, ride through the haze

Run till the halogens crack and blaze

Velocity shadow, off of the grid

Move till we break what the daylight did

Velocity shadow, out of the blind

Leaving the shape of the skin behind

Bridge

No clock

No sky

Just heat

Up high

The flicker is coming, the white is near

Outrun the morning, stay in the clear

Chorus

Velocity shadow, ride through the haze

Run till the halogens crack and blaze

Velocity shadow, off of the grid

Move till we break what the daylight did

Velocity shadow, out of the blind

Leaving the shape of the skin behind
