Something We Could Afford
Slow down
Slow down
Take a breath
Look around
Slow down
Slow down
Take a breath
Look around
Breathe it in as though
There was not a rush for you
To get in the last word
Between the mind and mouth there lies
A place we could spend time
- something we could afford
I wish we didn't have to move this fast
I don't think we're built for it
There's a heavy static on our tongues
Rest assured, we are all restless
I wish we didn't have to speak so much
And always in the loudest voice
There is a strength that's found in calm
And when you take a breath - by choice
So slow down
Slow down
Take a breath
And look around
Breathe it in as though
There was not a rush for you
To get in the last word
Between the mind and mouth there lies
A place we could spend time
- something we could afford
Slow down
Take a breath
Look around
Slow down
Slow down
Take a breath
Look around
Breathe it in as though
There was not a rush for you
To get in the last word
Between the mind and mouth there lies
A place we could spend time
- something we could afford
I wish we didn't have to move this fast
I don't think we're built for it
There's a heavy static on our tongues
Rest assured, we are all restless
I wish we didn't have to speak so much
And always in the loudest voice
There is a strength that's found in calm
And when you take a breath - by choice
So slow down
Slow down
Take a breath
And look around
Breathe it in as though
There was not a rush for you
To get in the last word
Between the mind and mouth there lies
A place we could spend time
- something we could afford
