SLOWLY

Everybody’s happy
As they walk on by
We just stare up at the sky

Consequences of
Two broken hearts
Are you that butterfly?

One day at a time
Are you done crying?
So am I
Stay by the side of me
No need for apologies
Scattered ashes in the deep blue sea
We move on together

Let’s get some dinner
Right down the road
Compare our spirit dreams

It’s all we have
All to hold onto
What do they really mean?

One day at a time
Are you done crying?
So am I
Stay by the side of me
No need for apologies
Scattered ashes in the deep blue sea
We move on together

Sounds and visions every night
Wish I could touch your face
From our secret hiding place
Suddenly sublime
See you again sometime

No hibernating
Under the snow
And wait for everything to grow

Let’s raise some money
Change the statistic
Everybody’s got to know

Now we slowly die
Are you done crying?
So am I
Stay by the side of me
No need for apologies
Scattered ashes in the deep blue sea
We move on together
