Slow Motion
Social Club Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feels like I'm in slow motion
Running in place
Opportunities pass by
In front of my face
What ever happened to the good old days?
The good old days...
What ever happened to the good old days?
The good old days...
Feels like I'm in slow motion, feels like I'm in slow motion
Feels like I'm in slow motion, I'm in, I'm in
People pass on every side of me
Just to get in front of me
The harder I try, the more I fall behind
Please tell me...
What ever happened to the good old days?
(Please don't call my bluff)
The good old days...
(Please don't call my bluff)
What ever happened to the good old days?
(Please don't call my bluff)
The good old days...
(Won't get out, can't speed up)
Feels like I'm in slow motion, feels like I'm in slow motion
Feels like I'm in slow motion, feels like I'm in slow motion
Feels like I'm in...




Feels like I'm in, I'm in
I'm in

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Slow Motion" by Social Club speak to the feeling of being stuck, of not being able to move forward or make progress. The singer expresses frustration with the way opportunities seem to pass them by, as if they are running in place. They reminisce about the "good old days" and wonder what happened to them. The feeling of being in slow motion is pervasive, and seems to affect everything around them - people pass by, but it's as if they're not going anywhere.


The frustration with feeling stuck and the longing for a simpler time are universal themes that many people can relate to. The lyrics also hint at a sense of desperation - the singer is falling behind and wishes things could be different. It's a poignant reminder that life can be difficult and full of challenges. At the same time, the repetition of the phrase "feels like I'm in slow motion" creates a sense of inertia that is almost hypnotic.


Overall, "Slow Motion" is a powerful song that conveys a deep sense of longing and frustration. The poetic imagery and repetition of certain phrases create a sense of melancholy that is hard to shake.
