Speed of Sound

How long before I get in Before it starts, before I begin? How long before you decide Before I know what it feels like? Where to? Where do I go? If you never try, then you'll never know How long do I have to climb Up on the side of this mountain of mine? Look up, I look up at night Planets are moving at the speed of light Climb up, up in the trees Every chance that you get is a chance you seize How long am I gonna stand With my head stuck under the sand? I'll start before I can stop Before I see things the right way up All that noise, all that sound All those places I got found And birds go flyin' at the speed of sound To show you how it all began Birds came flying from the underground If you could see it, then you'd understand
