Slowly Dying
Jack Hisatomi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We were only slowly dying, little did we know
The time we had left together, was only fading on
Why don’t we just run away, I don’t care where we go
As long as we just stay together, we’ll be forever young
I can’t keep my eyes off you girl
I love you too much, you are my world
I can’t keep my mind off you girl
I love you too much, my heart’s overwhelmed
I don’t wanna see the world with anybody else
Your name it echoes through my head and I can’t let it go



I love the feeling that I get when I’m with you alone
So let’s forget all the stupid shit and let our lives go on
I can’t keep my eyes off you girl
I love you too much, you are my world
I can’t keep my mind off you girl
I love you too much, my heart’s overwhelmed
I can’t keep my eyes off you girl
I love you too much, you are my world
I can’t keep my mind off you girl
I love you too much, my heart’s overwhelmed
