Slow Down, Please, Just Slow Down

Bob Dylan is drifting
my life is skipping
over before it started
slow down, please, just slow down

Weeks turn into minutes
I can see it, but can't grasp it
slipping away like sand
slow down, please, just slow down

Time comes crushing down
the gears of eternity keep turning
no mercy, no remorse, just moments
slow down, please, just slow down

Blink and it's over
feel the caress of a memory
did it even happen, does it matter
slow down, please, just slow down

The soul is the only clock worth watching
a timepiece of mortality, wound too tight
loose a moment and it's lost forever
Slow down, please, just slow down

Suspended from now to the end
stuck in space and time
drifting like a seed in the wind
slow down, Please, just slow down

Memories have a half life
radiation fires from great events
years later the flashbacks will wither
slow down, please, just slow down
