Can't Slow Down Lyrics

Gone Jackals Can't Slow Down

I'm driving hard, punching holes in the heat   
The air is clammy, a hamper full of nightmare's sheets.   
I'm goin' fast like a fading blonde   
No time for nothing but goin, goin', goin' - gone.   
My brakes are failing, blasting through all the lights   
My radiator's been blown since I was five.   
The night is clinging and the sidewalks reel   
My body's rusted, I'm rotten, screaming steel.  

Tire treads are smooth and hot   
goin' 'round.   
Sirens wailing long and loud   
but what's a man to do   
If he can't slow down.  

I'm knockin', knockin' underneath my hood.   
Don't you inspect me, you know I just ain't no good.   
I'm spittin' licorice in the D.M.Z.   
Both sides sit helpless - ironic equality.  

Like a warrior who fights without shield   
I'll go down.   
You'll see me smashed to bits in this town   
long before I'm due   
'Cause I can't slow down.
