Slow Motion English Singable Lyrics

slow motion, slowly ever-changing, it's true

visited the dairy
snatched up some sushi
i went back to my room then started to watch bad TV
the quiz was just beginning
the answers were easy
the fool i will keep playing
who can't stop fantasizing

my fever was breaking
i gulped down some pepcid
my eyes, they were closing
tucked underneath my bedsheets
your stupid face appearing
as my head was aching
"i'm not ready to die!" i was thinking
as i dazed my night away

that smug, snarky way of thinking when you're ten years old
that shame and embarrassment when you're twenty years old
and then, learning who you are when you're thirty years old
it's a part of being human, part of getting old

breaking into a sweat
i might need to change pyjamas again
the clock's hands are striking twelve, i see
until now this song has been about one small minute long
but how many minutes have you been alive, then?

slow motion, cradle to the grave we have a
condition, happy-gloomy fluctuation
wanting to find somebody who's exactly right for me
but those connections aren't that easy
communication, try too hard and you'll just fail your
audition, pushing back ones that don't suit you
you're not the only one living life but dead inside
take a hint from them and keep on living
it can't be that bad...

tinker with your body
finding what's working
'cause if you want some loving
you better change something
the future and the present
the past and its betterments
dancing in the night they're
beginning to blend in

now i can't stop coughing
it's making me thirsty
i practice my deep breathing
and lapse back into thinking
whil my nose is running
i pray to be healthy
but even with a single sneeze i'll lose it and i'll kiss it goodbye

my old self, yes the one that laughed with simply not a thought
who i know would never cry over a few bumps in the road
but now, with a smile worn down and time has made me old
now it's clear that on my train tracks to death, i'm well on course

while i change up the towel resting here upon my forehead i see
that it's been two hours since i went to sleep
until now this song has got about two small minutes left
but how many minutes is it 'til you die, then?

my graduation, everything you've worked so hard for
partitioned, out of sight and out of mind then
now i'd just like to say apart from a few memories
there's not much that i would like to take with me
imagination, ground into the dust by all that
religion, uninformed and just opinions
no matter what you will try, it'll be useless
haters gonna hate on everybody!
that's the way it is now

i'm wriggling, i'm writhing
with no way of escaping
i'm stuck here, no quitting
while everything is slowly slipping

caught up, caught up, self-reflection making me go soft
i can't stop, i can't stop, guess this sneezing makes me look real dumb
sniffling, sniffling, listen to this nose whistle of mine
seems to me like the dawn's approaching soon

{slow motion...}

slow motion, fever falling to reveal a
condition, clear blue skies and birds are chirping
now that i look back on it, maybe it's best if i just
give up now and find my rhythm fit for me
slow motion, time will stop for no one and that
goes for you, someday all we'll be is dust and
'cause when your ending comes, you know it's someone else's start
tied up together, ain't it wonderful?

a combination, meeting the right person makes a
question: in this world, just what is right, then?
we're living life with embarrassment, mistakes and all
misstepping simple pathways, always
cleaned out and emptied, all day, each day
really, that's just part of life now, i'd say!
there's no need to worry...
...
......maybe?

slow motion
slow motion
slow motion

marching to that curtain, it's true
