Slow Motion Countdown

How low, how long?

Lower than the sea

Too long to go

Too far to even try to reach

And don't you even try to let it go

While everything around me is breaking down so slow

Where will you go

When we all fade away?

Where is your silver touch

Above the sun next to us?

So when you walk outside to see the reasons fall

Do not forget the light that doesn't make you crawl

So I just stay at home, oh, just the saddest news

There is no side to choose

And the numbers grow and push you down so low

Don't ever let it loose

Don't ever let it loose

Oh, wasn't it a long way down

They leave us behind

So stay where you are

Don't come around no more

But it has gone too far

I've been asking for you

No, I won't see you call

The way the others do

If these are your prayers

I won't follow you through

When the flame turns blue

Not even you will lead us through

That's why I never go

If you see me, I move slow

My head runs off

I spread the bad news where I go

You'll see the ones that lost their minds into their hole

Like all your loved ones played the best part of their role

I can't help you now

When you ask me how

I see the trouble in your way

If you're out of time

You just stay in line

Don't ever let it loose

Don't ever let it loose

Oh, wasn't it a long way down

They leave us behind

So stay where you are

Don't come around no more

But it has gone too far

I've been asking for you

No, I won't see you call

The way the others do

If these are your prayers

I won't follow you through

When the flame turns blue

Not even you will lead us through

Don't ever let it loose

Don't ever let it loose

Oh, wasn't it a long way down

Long way down

Not even you will lead us through

When the flame turns blue
