Slow |
Slow would be the tempo of the restless soul |
He’s seen what a listless life can bring |
Wait and then he waits until he’s waiting for |
The latency of everything |
Slow would be the rhythm of the hummingbird |
The quick speed in the shutter of his eyes |
On flowers he will pose and he will spread the words |
On how the world is slowly passing by |
Slow, in the tiredness of your control |
Of the moment that is nearly standing still |
Delayed for a minute and not a second more |
Then fades like a forbidden thrill |
Gently, behind the beat, we shuffle on ancient streets |
The reverb of time is our vantage point |
We slept for a million years, lived through a million fears |
We are not nervous, we will not ask for more |
If you can slow up, I’m gonna slow up too |
Slow like the kissing of a lazy cheek |
Like the limit and the deadline of the rush |
And words, words waiting for you to speak |
Or getting lost in your eternal crush |
Slow would be the tempo of the restless mind |
He’s seen what a listless life can bring |
Wait and then he waits until he’s waiting for |
For the latency of everything |
Gently, behind the beat, we shuffle on ancient streets |
The reverb of time is our vantage point |
We slept for a million years, lived through a million fears |
We are not nervous, we will not ask for more |
Pawns of the troubled times and kings of our petty crimes |
The minds will function with a small delay |
See what the past has planned |
The future’s a beggar’s hand |
The more we understand, the slower our days |
If you can slow up, I’m gonna slow up too |
