Know For Why
Yorkshire terrain
Country road
Street lights dim
Open go
Rooftop down
Windy sky
Birds fly by
Accelerator drive
Through the bends
Speed like lighting flies
Mind racing hard
Caution cries
Valley road
Hill tops kiss the sky
Feel the power
V6 cry
Push it harder
Push it wide
Adrenaline feeds
Danger collides
Push it harder
Challenge the risk
Feel your soul
Scratch the itch
Corner taking
Sharp and wide
Blind top approaches
Feel the drive
Hear the thunder
Charge your mind
Feel serenity
Clarity of mind
Feel the presence of ones you’ve lost
Feel the broken dreams and realise the cost
Feel the pressure of life fade
See the wreckage that you’ve made
See the body of a broken man
Know what’s left of your life died on that land
A strange quiet fills the air
A strange feeling of complete despair
A strange arrogance that did not die
A strange place to be - the other side
Now your dead
Know your dead and know for why
