Breakneck Speed Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Breakneck speed tying up your hands
Cause you're landing back on your feet
You know what I mean
[Verse 2]
Vowel change
I remember when our voices used to sound the same
Now we just translate
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Born on your feet, running
Forest fires underneath your bed
[Chorus]
But it's good to be back
Good to be back
Good to be back
[Verse 3]
Staring out, I always skip the words
Cause all the pictures are so bright and loud
Better off than now
Breakneck speed tying up your hands
Cause you're landing back on your feet
You know what I mean
[Verse 2]
Vowel change
I remember when our voices used to sound the same
Now we just translate
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Born on your feet, running
Forest fires underneath your bed
[Chorus]
But it's good to be back
Good to be back
Good to be back
[Verse 3]
Staring out, I always skip the words
Cause all the pictures are so bright and loud
Better off than now
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Born on your feet, running
Forest fires underneath your bed
[Chorus]
Cause it's good to be back
Good to be back
[Bridge]
Super fun
At the movies, drunk and young
Double knots that came undone
But the big bad years are gone
Yeah, the big bad years are done
[Verse 4]
And gone away
I remember when our voices used to sound the exact same
Now we just translate
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Born on your feet, running
Forest fires underneath your bed
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Born on your feet, running
Forest fires underneath your bed
[Chorus]
Cause it's good to be back
Good to be back
[Bridge]
Super fun
At the movies, drunk and young
Double knots that came undone
But the big bad years are gone
Yeah, the big bad years are done
[Verse 4]
And gone away
I remember when our voices used to sound the exact same
Now we just translate
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Born on your feet, running
Forest fires underneath your bed
[Chorus]
But it's good to be back
Good to be back
Good to be back
But it's good to be back
Good to be back
Good to be back
