ACCELERATOR by Pain of Salvation Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I know what you're thinking
I must be the problem here
I think too fast, talk too loud
I barely touch the ground
Yes, I must be the problem here
[Verse 2]
I know what you're thinking
I must be the problem here
Charred ground all around
Sooty feet, a wild look of despair
Surely, I must be the problem here
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause outside there's a world on fire
And as I'm standing right here
Reeking of smoke, gasoline and pyre
I smell just like your worst fear
Though every step in my wake is charred ground
I swear, I'm not to blame here
I'm doing my best to fight fire with fire
Accelerator
[Chorus 1]
Like fire knows flame
You know my name
Spokesman of the
Restless and untamed
Accelerator
Accelerator
Like fire knows flame
You know my name
Spokesman of the broken and insane
I'm accelerator
Accelerator
[Verse 3]
You know what I'm thinking?
What if I am not the problem here?
You think so slow, plan too much
Had the matches all along
What if I am not the problem here?
[Verse 4]
Yes, lately I've been thinking
That you might be the problem here
Sane, seemingly sound
Pointing ink stained stubby fingers all around
While our houses burn down to the ground
[Bridge]
And outside there's a world on fire
And you're still debating
While the flames run higher and higher
Incinerating
We give you the brilliant, the crazy, the fools⠀
The gifted and the troubled
You Normals will follow the ones you choose
Now, maybe that's the problem?
[Chorus 2]
We're the ones who can save you all
Accelerator
We're the ones who can solve it all
Accelerator
We're the ones who can save you all
Accelerator
We're the ones who can solve it all
Accelerator
⠀
Don't kill every flame 'cause you're scared to get burned
Accelerator
Sometimes it's the fire that saves the world
Accelerator
Accelerator
I know what you're thinking
I must be the problem here
I think too fast, talk too loud
I barely touch the ground
Yes, I must be the problem here
[Verse 2]
I know what you're thinking
I must be the problem here
Charred ground all around
Sooty feet, a wild look of despair
Surely, I must be the problem here
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause outside there's a world on fire
And as I'm standing right here
Reeking of smoke, gasoline and pyre
I smell just like your worst fear
Though every step in my wake is charred ground
I swear, I'm not to blame here
I'm doing my best to fight fire with fire
Accelerator
[Chorus 1]
Like fire knows flame
You know my name
Spokesman of the
Restless and untamed

Like fire knows flame
You know my name
