  There isn't much I have to say about the video, it took me a few months to make (the editing was very spread out btw). I had wanted to make a video to a Stratovarius song for a while and listened over a few songs trying to imagine what I might use. The idea finally hit me when I listened to Speed of Light and scenes from Outlaw Star kept playing out in my head and it seemed like it'd work pretty well. I immediately began editing after I ripped the whole series onto my computer. It was pretty simple idea at first and was mostly just fun action editing, and then I decided to expand on it a bit more after realizing just how well it fit. I tried imagining the rest of the video in my head and thought it would work pretty well by showing bits and pieces from Gene's past every now and then in the video and build up to different events. I think the lyrics fit very well with his fast paced lifestyle as a bounty hunter, always managing to escape death in tight situations, giving it all he's got, trying to find a meaning to it all, all the while his life is going by at the speed of light, so he is the main focus of this video. Anyways, that's all I really have to say. I hope you enjoy it, and please leave an opinion if you can ^_^
  
  Here are the lyrics, please read them before watching if you can:
  
  Today is just another day
  of my life too short to live
  I should have some kind of meaning
  a destiny to believe in
  before I go to sleep
  
  I find some pictures of a time
  when everything was still so fine
  although the years have passed by
  I will give it all I have inside...everything
  
  I'm away lost in my thoughts
  everyday my life goes by
  at the speed of light
