Slow Motion Lyrics

Here I am, feeling the feeling I get

When I stare at the ceiling a bit too long

And I get too lost in my head

To recall the where exit is marked on the map

Try to learn back, take a breath 'fore I start to react

But it's long been a pattern I've had and it's hard to reject

Hard to connect all the dots when the line that I draw's in the sand

And I'm back on my bullshit, living out of compulsion

Set adrift on the raft that I crafted, ain't shit but to laugh when I crash

And it splits and I drown in the ocean

Oh shit, I'm back here again

With loneliness and go figure I found me a friend in it

Wanna crawl out of the den

But I don't know how to begin

I've been getting the notion

I've been living life in slow motion

Upside down

And outside in

Looking at the bigger picture but can't figure out where and how I fit in

How do I blend when all my colors so different from what I'm presented

And others will draw and affix?

It's difficult for me to mix without turning grey in the end

I could be doing more, I cannot do it all

But that will not do at all

I got a mountain to move

'fore I prove to myself what I'm doing will move the world

But I'll go nowhere

If I stay tripping on molehills

But these boots are steel toed and they're so hard to fill

Don't know if I will

I've been getting the notion

I've been living life in slow motion

Upside down

And inside out

When I open my mouth

I feel like I'm shouting but nothing but mumbles come out

And it bubbles and drowns, among an ocean of sound

But I been down, at the sea floor so long

I'm not sure how to get out

Don't know how to swim, I don't want to drown

But that's where I been, can't open up or the flood'll come in

So I keep all of my windows shut and I lit all those bridges up

And I burnt 'em all down

Now I got nowhere to walk, and no one to run with

I don't care I'm over 'em all

Okay alone in the dark

That's what I talk, but no matter how bad I want

To believe it it ain't true at all, naw

It's a fake, I don't know

How much more I can take

'Fore I break or, where to go

When everything is moving in slow

Motion
