Slow Motion
Joseph Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can we talk about the start
Can we talk about the hearts
Can we talk about everything in between

Can we talk about where were going
Can we talk about the start

They said it would move fast
My God where are we going
Change is in the air

My heart needs to be aware
Its moving on by

Everybody knows this time be moving way to fast
So bittersweet end-in baby
Can we just slow it down
Can we just have everybody be moving in Slow Motion
Cause everybody's hearts be broken (Broken,broken)
Can we just get away (get away) get away (get away)
Lets be moving in Slow Motion
At a faster pace (faster pace) at a slower rate (slower rate)
Im talking Slow Motion (scared slow-motion)

I wish we had more time
But it's time, a time for a new path

A path for rearranging
It's all moving to fast
Can we just slow down

Everybody knows this time be moving way to fast
So bittersweet end-in baby
Can we just slow it down
Can we just have everybody be moving in Slow Motion
Cause everybody's hearts be broken (Broken,broken)
Can we just get away (get away) get away (get away)
Lets be moving in Slow Motion




At a faster pace (faster pace) at a slower rate (slower rate)
Im talking Slow Motion (scared slow-motion)

Overall Meaning

The song starts with a call to talk about the start and the hearts, which could refer to the beginning of a relationship or even life. The lyrics encourage deep reflection on everything in between, suggesting a desire to linger in each moment and savor the experiences rather than rushing through them.


The chorus repeatedly calls for a slowdown, with a recognition that time is moving too fast and everyone's hearts are broken. The pain of the fast pace of life is palpable and the desire to escape is strong. Joseph seems to be saying that he wishes he had more time, but it's time for a new path. The song acknowledges that change is in the air and that the heart needs to be aware, but slow motion is what's needed at this point.


In summary, Slow Motion is a touching reminder of the importance of taking things slow and relishing each moment. It acknowledges the fleeting nature of time and the pain that comes with it, while emphasizing the need to slow down and cherish what's in front of us.

Lastima que se alejo del género y ahora le sirve al señor como cristiano, si aún siguiera ni todos los de la nueva escuela le ganarían si siendo un niño lo metieron en más Flow 2.5 y los Benjamin’s imaginen en cuantos albums grandes hubiera participado.
