Slow Me Down
Oh, so much to say
And the words
Would they hurt if I ever sent them on their way already?
And stars
Oh how they burn
For you and for me endlessly
When will I learn?
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
I cannot breathe I cannot
Reason with you
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
To reason with you
And you won't be satisfied
And you try and you try
To move faster than the speed of life
And you know it comes down to this
There's a fine finish line
That you won't care to notice
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
I cannot breathe I cannot
Reason with you
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
To reason with you
And all the lives you've tried to touch
Are now just lies that you've made up
Imaginations all the stuff
That you thought your dreams were made of
And all you've ever wanted was
Time to hold on to what was yours
It's gone
You're still here
You are not gone
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
I cannot breathe I cannot
Reason with you
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
To reason with you
Slow me down
Slow me down
Slow me down
Slow me down
And the words
Would they hurt if I ever sent them on their way already?
And stars
Oh how they burn
For you and for me endlessly
When will I learn?
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
I cannot breathe I cannot
Reason with you
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
To reason with you
And you won't be satisfied
And you try and you try
To move faster than the speed of life
And you know it comes down to this
There's a fine finish line
That you won't care to notice
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
I cannot breathe I cannot
Reason with you
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
To reason with you
And all the lives you've tried to touch
Are now just lies that you've made up
Imaginations all the stuff
That you thought your dreams were made of
And all you've ever wanted was
Time to hold on to what was yours
It's gone
You're still here
You are not gone
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
I cannot breathe I cannot
Reason with you
Slow me down
I cannot breathe I cannot
See the light of reason you've been feeding me
To wake me up
To reason with you
Slow me down
Slow me down
Slow me down
Slow me down
