The Darkness
Speed of the Nite Time
[Verse 1]
There's a room you never go in
'Cause you hate the atmosphere
Are the walls all cold and bleeding?
Are the TV people here?

Are the eyeballs always moving
On a painting of a face?
Are you tired of being frightened?
Do you need a man's embrace?

[Chorus]
I used to ride at the speed of the nite time
I was your knight in shining leather
Feel this burning
I used to ride at the speed of the nite time
My head said "brake" but my heart cried "never!"

Feel this burning love
Feel this burning love
Feel this burning love
Feel this burning love

[Verse 2]
Well it's always at the same time
Between 3am and 4
Something dragged across the carpet
Something moaning at the door
So you call me in hysterics
And I know it's time to ride
I would rather be your lover
Than your spirit guide

[Chorus]
I used to ride at the speed of the nite time
I was your knight in shining leather
Feel this burning
I used to ride at the speed of the nite time
My head said "brake" but my heart cried "never!"
Feel this burning love
Feel this burning love

Feel this burning love
Feel this burning love
Feel this burning love

(I used to ride at the speed of the nite time)
(I used to ride at the speed of the nite time)
(I used to ride at the speed of the nite time)
(I used to ride at the speed of the nite time)
