Slow It Down

Everybody wants their little piece of you
And it's being spread so very thin
It pains me to see how you're torn at the corners again, my friend
The jagged edge is wicked and it shows.

Better slow it down
Remind yourself again
Look at where you're bound
Rewind yourself and then
In the lost and found
Find yourself, remind yourself
Better slow it down.

While you put your dreams off on your waiting list
Someday the tomorrows cease to come
These handcuffs are fool's gold; you're stuck in a corner
So then, my friend, you'll have to find the key down in the dirt.

Better slow it down
Remind yourself again
Look at where you're bound
Rewind yourself and then
In the lost and found
Find yourself, remind yourself
Better slow it down.

Take a deep breath and take care
For this will get you nowhere
Don't let the madness get you
So many people love you
And I do
I would fight for you
I would...

I never want to be another one of them
It's not my thing to slave trade you for time
I want you to know you've got me in your corner till the end, my friend
So know that you can always count on me.
