Closer to their album Always Ascending, the subject begs his or her lover to allow their breakup to occur in a short time span so that minimal pain is endured.
[Verse 1]
Slow, don't take it slow when you put on that hat
That black velvet cap
Well, this is that long-due occasion you can wear it at
Don't send this invite back
[Chorus]
Slow, don't kill me slow, don't kill me slow
No, never, never, no, don't kill me slow
No, never, never, kill me quick
Kill me quicker if you can, I cannot take it slow
Don't kill me slow
[Verse 2]
When you showed your executioner's cap to me
You put it on for me, said that I would see
You'd kill whatever sapped your love from me
So put it on for me, put it on again, oh
[Chorus]
Slow, don't kill me slow, don't kill me slow
No, never, never, no, don't kill me slow
No, never, never, kill me quick
Kill me quicker if you can, I cannot take it slow
Don't kill me
[Bridge]
Jump cut back to high-res time lapse
Seasons shift or pass
Maybe leaves then snow into still-life ripens
Stop-motion perishing
Feast of larvae explode
Blue dust shadow of mould
[Outro]
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow, slow, slow, slow
Slow
Slow
