Slow It Down
The Lumineers Lyrics
I feel her filth in my bones
Wash off my hands 'til it's gone
The walls they're closing in
With velvet curtains
Some love was made for the lights
Some kiss your cheek and goodnight
Lift up a red high heel
Lock up your doors with steel
My blinds are drawn I can't see
Smashed in my car window
Didn't touch the stereo
Slow it down, Angie come back to bed
Rest your arms, and rest your legs
Act like you've been here before
Smile less and dress up some more
Tie up your scarf real tight
These boys are out for blood tonight
Slow it down, Angie come back to bed
Rest your arms, and rest your legs
And when she stood, she stood tall
She'll make a fool of you all
Don't ask for cigarettes
She ain't got nothin' left for you
I never, she never, we never looked back
That wasn't what we were good at
And when it came to love
We were not good enough uh huh
Slow it down, Angie come back to bed
Rest your arms, and rest your legs
Don't you frown when you're feelin' like that
Only love can dig you out of this

The Ho Hey Songfacts reports that Schultz and Fraites were originally based in New York and started collaborating in 2002 after Fraites’ brother, Josh, who was also Schultz’s best friend died of an overdose. The pair began writing and performing to cope with their grief and they later relocated to Denver, where they met the classically trained Pekarek after advertising for a cellist.
A Denver, Colorado based group. The roots revival of the last few years has primed listeners for a new generation of rustic, heart-on-the-sleeve music—the kind that nods to tradition while setting off into uncharted territory. The Lumineers walk that line with an unerring gift for timeless melodies and soul-stirring lyrics.

i had a girlfriend, she passed away a few weeks ago, her family moved out the city and the only thing i have left of her is this song, her favorite song, now this song has become my anthem, i hope there's a radio or something in heaven so that she can listen to this song there.

She's only dead when forgotten bro. Keep your head up. I cant seem to find the meaning of why I'm still here, but the rest perished. Is what it is, and that's all it can be

The way his voice breaks when he says “slow it down” gets me every time. What a song.
