Slow Me Down
Harrieta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You call me on my phone,
When your alone,
You never needed me,
when I was yours,
and since I left,
You’re a mess,
But I won’t let you think,
Pre-chorus:
You try, to fight,
But I drive through the night,
Right out,
Of this town,
I don’t need you around
Chorus:
You won’t slow me down,
Down, Down, Down,
Never gonna stop,
Gonna fight these rounds
You won’t slow me down,
Down, Down, Down,
Down, Down
Scream it from the top,
t’ll you hear the sound
Don’t matter what you do,
I’ll stand my ground,
You won’t slow me down,
Down, Down, Down,
Down, Down
You wont slow Me
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Verse 2:
I saw the signs
A thousand times,
Yeah I was warned,
I finally saw the truth,
This open road,
Is all I know,
Been gone so long,
Too late to turn around
Pre-chorus:
You try, to fight,
But I drive through the night,
far from,
this town,
I don’t need you around
Chorus:
You won’t slow me down,
Down, Down, Down,
Never gonna stop,
gonna fight these rounds
You won’t slow me down,
Down, Down, Down,
Down, Down
Scream it from the top,
t’ll you hear the sound
Don’t matter what you do,
I’ll stand my ground,
You won’t slow me down,
Down, Down, Down,
Down, Down
You won’t slow Me
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Da ha ha ha ha ha wn,
Bridge:
There’s nothing you can do,
To slow me down now babe,
Tell me what you want,

You call me on my phone
You reach out to me via phone
When your alone
When you are by yourself
You never needed me
You never required my assistance
when I was yours
When I belonged to you
and since I left
And ever since I departed
You’re a mess
You are in a state of disarray
But I won’t let you think
But I won't allow you to believe
That I’m to blame
That I am responsible
You try, to fight
You attempt to resist
But I drive through the night
But I continue driving throughout the night
Right out
Straight away
Of this town
Away from this place
I don’t need you around
I don't require your presence
You won’t slow me down
You will not impede my progress
Down, Down, Down
Lower, lower, lower
Never gonna stop
I will never cease
Gonna fight these rounds
I will engage in these battles
Scream it from the top
Shout it from the highest point
t’ll you hear the sound
Until you hear the noise
Don’t matter what you do
It doesn't matter what you do
I’ll stand my ground
I will hold my position
There’s nothing you can do
There is nothing you can accomplish
To slow me down now babe
To hinder my progress at this moment, babe
Tell me what you want
Inform me of your desires
coz I know it won’t phase me
Because I know it won't affect me
You’ll never slow me down
You will never hinder my progress
