Heart Slows Down

Well the television psychic says you should've seen it comin'
The dealer's dirty fingers are reachin' for your money
Your bones just rattle like a dropped tambourine
And everything sad is a little bit funny

You called out the instigator but you never heard a thing
It's just busted wood and broke piano strings

Honey if your heart slows down
Honey if your heart slows down
Honey if your heart slows down

Well you keep goin' back to all you've destroyed
Till it washes you out from the river of joy
Revolver plays over the thoughts in your head
And past the forgiveness you try to employ

'Cause every precious thing must bend and bruise

Honey if your heart slows down
Honey if your heart slows down
Honey if your heart slows down

Well the record is endin' as you turn away
Born of the ashes ya left in the tray
Lazy like smoke that hangs in the air
As easy to see through and fadin' away

So don't you disbelieve it: we all live in this world alone
On doctors' drugs just starin' at your Jesus phone

Honey if your heart slows down
Honey if your heart slows down
Honey if your heart slows down
