Highspeed

I wrote this in Stats class sometime in later January or perhaps early February. It's lyrical, not poetical.
------------
Watch the high speed camera run 
at twice the speed of light
just to catch you at your worse
Never turn it off, never turn it off

I've been sleeping with this silence
that alone is enough to kill me
and all I see is enough to numb me
but she, she fuels me

So I've been awake in this sunlight
and all it does is freeze me
and all I can think about is who will fuck me
but she, she warms me

You still right the way you used to be
running from bare tree to tree
on the mountain top we used to sleep
And watch the high speed camera run
at twice the speed of light
just to catch you at your worse
Never turn it off, never turn it off

And no one will listen to me say
this will never work because you never let it
if you're feeding off me like before
the problem is I let it happen 
the problem is I'll let it happen

But let your grace run down on me
all I want is to make it there

You still right the way you used to be
running from bare tree to tree
on the mountain top we used to sleep
And watch the high speed camera run
at twice the speed of light
just to catch you at your worse
Never turn it off, never turn it off
