About This Track

"Slow" is a track by System of a Down, from the album Demo Tape 4, released 1st August 1997. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Slow

[Verse 1]

The piercing radiant moon

The storming of poor June

All the life running through her hair

Approaching guiding light

Our shallow years in fright

Dreams are made, winding through my head

[Chorus]

Through my head

Before you know, awake

[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]

Your lives are open wide

The V-chip gives them sight

Of all the life running through her hair

The spiders all in tune

The evening of the moon

Dreams are made, winding through my head

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Through my head

Before you know, awake

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

Through my head

Through my head

Before you know

Before you know, I will be waiting, all awake

[Outro]

Dreams are made, winding through her hair

Dreams are made, winding through her hair
