Slow Down

[Verse 1]

You still know authentic me

All I know now is the chemicals pulsating

You don't agree

You promise we all get lost at some point, some way

Yeah, but the season has changed

Fall has fallen away

And now I'm stuck in this infinite dream

Screaming in my sleep of how more than anything

I need your beautiful slow down

You instruct to cut it out

I say cut one, cut all

But a day will fly on by

And I'll take a deep breath like I never held it at all

[Chorus]

Drag me out into the rain

Tell me all about the pain

I've been causing and the way it all makes sense with the weather

Tell me he ain't coming back

And no synthetic distraction

Will ever change the fact

Nor make it any better

I'll reply by walking out

Illustrate the then and now

Leave you broken like you've been left by the ones that you love most

Though I am more lost than you could know

[Verse 2]

You remember my face

Back when it was pure and sober

Back when my bones were more adequately covered

And so you say you won't stop

Until you've nursed me back to me

And I'll remain someone else

But still admit that more than anything

I need your beautiful slow down

[Chorus]

Drag me out into the rain

Tell me all about the pain

I've been causing and the way it all makes sense with the weather

Tell me he ain't coming back

And no synthetic distraction

Will ever change the fact

Nor make it any better

I'll reply by walking out

Illustrate the then and now

Leave you broken like you've been left by the ones that you love most

Though I am more lost than you could know

(You'll never change that)

[Bridge]

Been hard at work on my spine

It's where I've directed all my time

To rid these wings itching to fly

They grow, they grow, I try, I try

[Chorus]

Drag me out into the rain

Tell me all about the pain

I've been causing and the way it all makes sense with the weather

Tell me he ain't coming back

And no synthetic distraction

Will ever change the fact

Nor make it any better

I'll reply by walking out

Illustrate the then and now

Leave you broken like you've been left by the ones that you love most

Though I am more lost than you could know

(You'll never change that)
