Speed of Sound chords and lyrics

How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Or 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 Or before I see things the right way
up

All that noise and all that
sound All those places I got
found

And birds go flying 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.

Ideas that you'll never
find All the inventors could never
design The buildings that you put
up Are japan and china all
lit up the sign that I
couldn't read Or a light that I
couldn't see Some things you have
to believe But others are puzzles,
puzzling me

All that noise and all that
sound All those places I got
found

And birds go flying 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 Oh, when you see it, then
you'll understand

All those signs I knew what
they meant Some things you
can't invent Some get made and some
get
sent Ooh-ooh

birds go flying 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 Oh when you see it then
you'll understand
