Lyrics by Robin Steen

Verse 1

In the wind,
a winter song
calls my name, the vowels long.
I know the owl's never wrong.

In my mind:
a cold clear light.
In my heart, I long to fly
fast and free beyond the sky.

Chorus

But now, I can't see the road before me (at all).
My fingers numb upon the wheel,
Cannot hear the tires squeal
in the fast lane.

Slow-motion lightning, butterfly kissed
the bird emerges from the mist.
the owl is silent on the wing,
I can hear the angels sing
over the fast lane.

Passing in and out of consciousness-
the blindness merges with the bliss.
I hear the owl call my name,
a feather falling through the rain
to the fast lane.

Verse 2

In the night,
the hours are long.
All alone and far away,
I hone the tune that I must play.

In the dream,
the way is clear:
ride the wind into the dark
and feed my spirit to the spark.

A great throwback to the music of the first Need for Speed games. This music could slot in effortlessly without anyone knowing. Classic. me0262

Favorite track is Time Dilation remix which I think is better, more developed than original, also Serpens 202 is pumping hard. Loneck

The street lights are passing at accelerating pace until you move up into the sky. Like light you'll refract and entangle and have your mind blown, when you come to realize you are indistinguishable from the countless other photons, if it wasn't for your own chaotic path. wraehkel
