​​slow down

[Verse 1]
Throw the cards off of the table
You don't need to take them just cos they're dealt
Laid waste to the games you used to play
And now you're standing where you once felt
The ground cave in beneath your feet
Until you couldn't feel the leaves on your fingertips
Cos you were just trying to make a mess of it

[Pre-Chorus]
So just
Slow down, slow down
You've been running too fast and you need to catch a breath now
Woke up out of touch and now I'm screaming out
Dropped down, you don't got a lot to prove now
So call it what you want cos its nothing I need
I'm falling out of line and I got no room to breathe
I'm breaking down in my defeat

[Chorus]
Hold on
Dip your feet into the watеr, is it colder
You're just as vulnerablе, you've only gotten bolder
I know you wanna set the world on fire and watch it burn
But wait a second, just hold on
Hold fast
Waiting for a moment to relapse into your habits again
An unwitting end

[Verse 2]
Outlined, tongue tied now its dead set
Chest gripped cos I don't think I'm ready yet
To face off with the man in the mirror
And waste a new year
Cos every single day's been a smear since like month three
Plagued by these visions, you don't want me
To waste your time
So display your crimes

[Pre-Chorus]
So just
Slow down, slow down
I've been running too fast and I can't catch a breath now
Woke up out of touch and now I'm screaming out
Dropped down, I've got nothing left to prove now
So call it what you want cos its nothing I need
I'm falling out of line and I got no room to breathe
I'm breaking down in my defeat

[Bridge]
But maybe it's worth the distance
Cos were closer than were far
And the light will outrun the dark

[Outro]
Hold on
Dip your feet into the water, is it colder
You're just as vulnerable, you've only gotten bolder
I know you wanna set the world on fire and watch it burn
But wait a second, just hold on
Hold fast
Waiting for a moment to relapse into your habits again
An unwitting end
