Slow Motion

Slipped away out of my hands like a soap once again

Hey what a day, gone for the night and then

Run back home and tuck yourself in for a needed sleep

For another work-week, what a day what a day

Then wake up, oh no, sunset, I missed another day

One slap on the cheek and out the door

Running and running and coming closer to stumbling

If you run with a knife, you fall.

You stick a hole in that bubble called life

But my weapon is clean and I'm ready to go

Run nicotine, caffeine through my veins

To wake up, catch up, but it seems like

Ohhh.. I've been living in slow motion

I've been living in slow motion

Hold your breath and count to three

Not me, I've got to see what's around the corner ok

One two three... I've got to have air

Stumbling around spinning the disco ball faster

More of everything

It smells like burning rubber under my shoes

But I'm always one step behind, one minute too late

Hey operator, could you connect me with a respirator

I'm running after life like a dog on a leech

But life keeps slipping away

Ohhh.. I've been living in slow motion

I've been living in slow motion

We make it a hard synchronize

Stuck stuck stuck stuck in the lies you better

Leave leave because so many times

I run 50 miles an hour and I get sick sick sick

Wait wait I can't hold your breath

Stay stay won't let you go away

I'll stay and sleep with the lions

If you say you won't go away

I've been running

I've been running out of time

I've been living in,

I've been living in slow motion
