Album: Promise And Terror (2010)

God Of Speed

Twisting the grip of the beast you've created
Alive in the seconds that you burn away
You taste the fear and you're feeling the danger
Danger inside that you know is the spice of your life
25 years you have dreamt of a moment
A moment that puts you in this place on earth
Heroes make legends on this holy ground
To race against legends you traveled halfway round the world
Your face in the wind
You give this offering
To the god of speed
This is what you need

To live your life
Living your lifetime
When you ride
You're living your life
You live your life
Living your lifetime
When you ride
You live your life in the wind

All of your life you thought that you'd do something
Do something big and not just fade away
You are too old, your machine is outdated
You won't let that stop you following through on your dream
Your face in the wind
You give this offering
To the god of speed
This is what you need

To live your life
Living your lifetime
When you ride
You're living your life
You live your life
Living your lifetime
When you ride
You live your life in the wind

Living each day like it could be your last
You regret nothing, it's all in the past
You just don't know if tomorrow will come
So everything you want to do you get done
You make no excuse or try to justify
Anything that you have done in your life
Living more in five minutes when you ride
Than some people do in the whole of their life

Living your lifetime
When you ride
You're living your life
You live your life
Living your lifetime
When you ride
You live your life in the wind
