Lyrics Third Eye Blind

Third Eye Blind

Slow Motion

Miss Jones taught me English

But I think I just shot her son

'Cause he owed me money

With a bullet in a chest you can not run.

Now he's bleeding in the vacant lot

The one in the summer where we used to smoke pot

I guess I didn't mean it

But man, you should've seen it

His flesh explode

Slow motion, see me let go

We tend to die young

Slow motion, see me let go

What a brother knows

Slow motion, see me let go

Now the cops will get me,

But girl, if you would let me

I'll take your pants off

I got a little bit of blow we could both get off

Later bathing in the afterglow,

Two lines of coke cut with Drano

And her nose starts to bleed

A most beautiful ruby red

Slow motion, see me let go

We'll remember these days

Slow motion, see me let go

Urban life decay

Slow motion, see me let go

And at home, my sister's eating paint chips again,

Maybe that's why she's insane

I shut the door to the moaning,

And I shoot smack in veins

Wouldn't you?

See my neighbor's beating his wife,

Because he hates his wife

There's a knock to his fist as he swings,

Oh man, what a beautiful thing

And death slides close to me,

Won't grow old to be

A junkie wino creep

Hollywood glamorized my wrath,

I'm a young urban psychopath

I incite murder, for your entertainment

'Cause I needed the money, what's your excuse?

The joke's on you.

Slow motion, see me let go,

Oh yeah.

Slow motion, see me let go, oh

Slow motion, see me let go, ooh....
