Speedway

[Intro]

And when you slam down the hammer

Can you see it in your heart?

[Chorus]

All of the rumours

Keeping me grounded

I never said, I never said

That they were completely unfounded

[Verse 1]

So when you slam down the hammer

Can you see it in your heart, can you delve so low?

And when you're standing on my fingers

Can you see it in your heart?

And when you try to break my spirit, it won't work

Because there's nothing left to break anymore

[Chorus]

All of the rumours

Keeping me grounded

I never said, I never said

That they were completely unfounded

[Verse 2]

You won't sleep until the earth that wants me

Finally has me, oh, you've done it now

You won't rest until the hearse that becomes me

Finally takes me, oh, you've done it now

And you won't smile until my loving mouth

Is shut good and proper forever

[Chorus]

All of the rumours

Keeping me grounded

I never said, I never said that they were

Completely unfounded

[Outro]

And all those lies, written lies, twisted lies

Well, they weren't lies, they weren't lies, they weren't lies

I never said, I never said

I could have mentioned your name, I could have dragged you in

Guilt by implication, by association

I've always been true to you

In my own strange way, I've always been true to you

In my own sick way, I'll always stay true to you
