When Things Slow Down Lyrics

I keep thinking that I'm growing

That I've found a forward path

But this healing's never linear

And sometimes I snap right back

Oh the rings of this mortal coil

Wound as tight as they've ever been

Let me call you back, when things slow down a bit

Some nights I've laid awake for hours

Just letting my brain shout

Some days silence feels rejuvenating

Some days it's pregnant with self-doubt

Either my thoughts and I don't get along

Or we're amicable roommates

I'll get back to you, when things slow down a bit

I look back at a version of me

I no longer recognize

A lightness in my steps

An easy joy behind my eyes

And everyone else seems to be

Moving forward with their lives

But have they really all left me behind

Or will I meet them round the bend

I'll catch up to you, when things slow down a bit

Sometimes the forward path's a circle

Back to where we've been

I'll catch up to you, when things slow down a bit

Let me call you back, when things slow down a bit
