Slow
Soldiers of a Wrong War Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your light is fading out
Before you realize
The ship is sinking down
Again
Who needs the sun to set?
Who needs the night to come?
We're all in search of time but we just waste it all
You used to try a thousand times
Don't stop yourself now
You're taking it slow
What goes around comes back around again
You're taking it slow
Despite the struggles you can make it right
You're gonna take it slow
Dive inside
The water is waiting for you
To make you feel alive
Again
You need the sun to set
You need the night to come
Now that you found your time
Would you just waste it all?
You used to try a thousand times
Don't stop yourself now
You're taking it slow
What goes around comes back around again
You're taking it slow
Despite the struggles you can make it right
You're taking it slow
Just trace another line on a sleepless night
You're taking it slow
You cannot live a life inside this lie
You're gonna take it slow
You're taking it slow
What goes around comes back around again
You're taking it slow
Despite the struggles you can make it right
You're taking it slow
Just trace another line on a sleepless night
You're taking it slow
You cannot live a life inside this lie
You're gonna take it slow
(you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna)
(you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna)
You're gonna take it slow
(you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna)




(you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna)
You're gonna take it slow
