Can't Slow Down
Hedley Lyrics

It's a strange thing in life
Life is an unpredictable and inexplicable journey that can be filled with surprises.

When you're chasing your dreams
Pursuing one's aspirations is an exhilarating, yet uncertain journey.

And it's not what it seems
Sometimes, reality can be very different from what we imagine and expect.

And your heart is on the line
Putting your feelings and emotions out there can be a vulnerable and risky move.

And now we want to be the one fade in
We all desire to be noticed and recognized for our achievements and contributions.

Am I out of my mind?
Questioning one's sanity, especially when feeling overwhelmed or uncertain, is not uncommon.

Do I got it all wrong
Doubting one's abilities or decisions can creep in, even when things seem to be going fine.

Though I have what I want
Having what one desires doesn't always equate to happiness or satisfaction.

But I try to make it right
Correcting mistakes or taking action to improve situations is a proactive approach to life.

I've never wanted to be the one waiting
Having a sense of urgency and taking initiative is often valued more than being passive or waiting for things to happen.

She said Jake you're a little bit stoned
Being accused of being under the influence of drugs by someone close can be hurtful and damaging.

When you gonna get grown
Being told to grow up can be interpreted as a challenge to face responsibilities or make more mature decisions.

Would you just go home
Being asked to leave can be a clear indication of being unwelcome or causing trouble.

I'm so not sure
Feeling uncertain or confused can be frustrating and make it hard to make decisions.

Could you help yourself
Being more self-sufficient and not having to rely on others is an admirable quality.

I can't help you anymore
When others can no longer provide support or assistance, it can feel isolating and overwhelming.

You're going faster than me
Feeling left behind or unable to keep up with others' pace can be discouraging or demotivating.

Too little too late
Doing something too late or not doing enough can have serious consequences and lead to regret.

I don't think I'm gonna stay
Realizing that staying in a situation or relationship is not ideal can require difficult, but necessary, decisions.

I don't think you gonna change
Doubting that someone can or will change their behavior or mindset can be a sign of losing hope or trust.

But I can't slow down now
Stopping or slowing down can feel like a setback, especially when focused on achieving goals.

The light just went down, down
Experiencing a decline or setback can be emotionally challenging and hard to navigate.

Baby hold on somehow
Finding the strength and resilience to persevere through tough times is a valuable quality.

'Cause I can't slow down now
Reminding oneself to stay focused and determined, even when facing obstacles, can help achieve success.

There's a cost, there's a price
Achieving certain outcomes often requires sacrifice or trade-offs, which can have consequences.

Yeah you're really feel the fall out
Feeling the negative effects or consequences of one's actions can be a painful learning experience.

Ripping your heart out
Experiencing deep emotional pain, such as heartbreak, can be devastating and hard to overcome.

Night after night
Experiencing the same painful or difficult emotions repeatedly can feel like a never-ending cycle.

When all you ever wanted was some home time
Desiring a sense of stability, peace, or comfort in one's surroundings or relationships is a natural human desire.

I'm not thinking sober
Being inebriated or under the influence of substances can impair judgment and decision making.

I don't think it's over
Believing that a situation or relationship is not irreparable or final is a hopeful outlook.

I can't lie
Being honest and truthful, even when difficult or uncomfortable, is a commendable quality.

But I can use a little bit of lone time
Seeking solitude or time alone to process emotions and thoughts can be beneficial for mental health.
