These lyrics actually aren't all that bad. They're no Starblind, sure, but it's about as good as I expected it to be from a song called "Speed of Light."

 

[SixesAlltheway]

Perhaps you actually work for Metrolyrics and everything you've posted lyrics wise up until now have been actual TBOS lyrics

They read a bit like El Dorado perhaps...There are a few iffy lines in there though IMO.

I am possitive this is going to be a solid track,I did not care for the lyrics anyway. As Prometheus or (Προμυθέας) in Greek, said there is not much to ask for once a song is callled Speed of light.

I can't disagree there, but again, it's a song called Speed of Light. This is actually a little less cheesy than I was expecting the lyrics to be. I will say that I quite like the last line in the second chorus in particular. It's well-phrased, imo.

Can you guys please discuss the damn leaked lyrics in freaking spoiler tags? Or not at all, preferably.

[SixesAlltheway]

I'm also getting a nod to Caught Somewhere in Time in some of the lines.

I am just really happy with the chorus. Wide range of different words hehe

It's a little cheese. A bit like Priest, don't you think?

A little, but again, I think it's actually a little less cheesy than I expected a song named Speed of Light to be.

I always just assumed that "Speed of Light" was an anagram for "Ledges of Pith." That the band was into extreme botany, and this was there way of coming out.

Not 100% yet, because not all organization is done, but......

it looks like someone is going to spoil the album for me, after all:
Mr. Bruce Dickinson!

 

[Ranko]

You got picked for the studio tour? Holy crap, man! Congratulations!!! Don't you dare forget any details from the trip!

 

[bornless1]

I don't know that lyrics to songs don't completely look different once the music is revealed. I've read lyrics and called "cheese" and then once in the context of the music really liked them in the past. I'm resisting the urge to view anything til I get the single anyway.
I wonder if a countdown is coming on the official sight? If so, we're damn close to it popping up!!!
