Slow Down Lyrics

When will the sun catch up with you?

Living your life like a race to be won

Minutes wasted every second

On the road to knowing what you've done

Opportunities passed up and left to die

You didn't give a second thought to

Clear your mind and open up your eyes

To see how you threw away your youth

With every, "I'll do it later"

Or, "It slipped my mind"

You dug a hole so deep you'll never find

Your way out

I'll draw back the curtains for you

And let the sun in to slow you down

We're riding on this intuition

A premonition that we have to grow up now

I can't say I've been immune, no

I'm just like you, but who isn't?

Everything just seems to go by so fast

I want to stop but I just can't abandon my mission

With every, "I'll do it later"

Or, "It slipped my mind"

We dug a hole so deep we'll never find

Our way out
