eed Demon

On the highway between darkness
Reflected upon the same skies
The tar stones that paved our way
Shines upon its granite stars
Against the starry nights
Reveals each full Lunar night

Speeding besides the wheels of men
Racing to their untimely end
Like the bodiless sprits that seek
The heads of the living riders they meet
Of the highway made by men
For the living speed upon it

So do the speed demons who watch
To feed upon all who turns to see?
They don? own the highway or the speed
For they seek the souls of wreak carnage
Following each rider to whisper
Turn and see the face of this ghost rider

Bodiless with just a head flying
With trailing entrails skimming
Like pebbles upon the torrent stream
Taking the souls that spread
Upon the blood and tar race
Breaking the boundaries of speed limits
Taking the souls that passed between metallic hells

Into the fiery brimstones that lay markers
For the dark highway seek another rider
To pay the penance of a speeding murderer
Justice be paid in full
As heads do roll with entrails and all
You ascend to race forever bane by speed
As once in life now in death collides with
Speeding demons of the both highways
