Smashing Pumpkins – Speed Kills lyrics

Album: Machina II / Friends and Enemies of Modern Music

Speed kills
The beauty lives forever
Speed drowns
The beauty knows your name
Barrel inside eternal winter
Stand still beside eternal flame
Because when I ride
With you tonight
We move
At the speed of light
And all I ask and all I pray
Last rose of summer is gone
Last rose of summer is gone
First time that I ever saw you
Crashing upon the desert plain
You were one of your children
Left to cry out in the rain
Waiting to descend again
When I ride
With you tonight
We move
At the speed of light
And all I ask and all I pray
Last rose of summer
Last rose of summer
Last rose of summer is gone
Long gone
Gone
Last rose of summer is gone
Cause when I ride
With you tonight
We move
At the speed of light
Forever young
Forever bright
To stars
We die tonight
The last rose of summer
The last rose of summer
The last rose of summer is gone
