Lyrics
Slow down the pace
Expressing a desire to reduce the speed or intensity of life.
I have never known me this out of place
Feeling disoriented or unfamiliar with oneself in the current situation.
If stupid acting dumb, is the shape of things to come
Suggesting that engaging in foolish or unintelligent behavior might be indicative of future challenges.
And I add up that sum
Reflecting on the consequences of one's actions and calculating their cumulative impact.
Then this is where I can't get back from
Conveying a sense of irreversible progression or change.
Take my hand, I will follow
Inviting someone to join the journey and guide through difficulties.
Only you can slow this down
Acknowledging the power of the other person to influence the pace and direction of life.
Take my hand, and I will mellow
Emphasizing the potential calming effect of the other person's presence.
Cos only you can hold me like a tourniquet
Comparing the support of the other person to a tourniquet, highlighting its crucial and stabilizing nature.
Make me stay, here with you
Expressing a desire to remain in the current state or situation.
No ego left to bruise
Indicating a lack of personal pride or sensitivity to criticism.
At least there's something good in most bad news
Finding a positive aspect in unfavorable circumstances.
I just don't want to cruise
Rejecting the idea of moving through life casually or aimlessly.
With anyone of all the young dudes
Choosing not to associate with a specific group or type of people.
Cos round for round
Suggesting that only those unconcerned with societal norms will face challenges.
Only uncool will travel on gravel ground
Emphasizing that being unconventional leads to difficulties.
So take my hand, I will follow
Reiterating the invitation to share the journey and slow down together.
Only you can slow this down
Restating the influence the other person has on slowing down the pace of life.
Take my hand, and I will mellow
Reiterating the calming effect of the other person's presence.
Cause only you can slow this down
Highlighting the exclusive ability of the other person to bring calmness and stability.
You can slow this down
Affirming the power to slow down the progression or intensity of life.
So take my hand, I will follow
Repeating the willingness to follow the other person through life's challenges.
Cos only you can slow this down
Reiterating the unique ability of the other person to influence the pace of life.
Take my hand, and I will mellow
Stressing the calming impact of the other person's support.
Cos only you can hold me like a tourniquet
Emphasizing the vital role of the other person in providing stability and support.
Make me stay, here with you
Expressing a desire to remain in the current state or situation with the other person.
