Slow Motion
Living in Slow Motion: Embracing Life's Unpredictable Rhythms
Lyrics
Ive been living just a little fast
I've been living a fast-paced life
at the bottom of a glass
Consuming alcohol, possibly to cope or escape
I would never ever want to
Expressing a desire not to hinder someone's progress
Hold you hold you back
A commitment not to hold someone back
like the colors about to fly
Describing a moment of excitement or intensity
and Im the kid pulling down the kite
Imagery of a child flying a kite, possibly symbolizing freedom
It's really fun man you should probably try
Suggesting that the experience is enjoyable for others
Oh no, here we are again moving in
Expressing a return to a particular situation
Slow motion, I'm getting pulled from all sides
Feeling overwhelmed and pulled in different directions
I've been lying on my back
Lying down, possibly metaphorical for a moment of reflection
I've been lying through my teeth
Being deceitful or dishonest
And I'm running to the park you're all waiting there for
Heading to a place where people are waiting for connection
somebody to meet you, trying to reach you
Desiring to meet and connect with others
trying to make you feel alright
Attempting to make others feel better
And the moment comes and goes
Highlighting fleeting moments
We sing La vie en rose
Referencing a famous song and possibly the joy of singing
I would never ever want to
Reiterating a commitment to not disrupt spontaneity
ruin an impromptu show
Avoiding ruining an impromptu performance or event
But the feeling's setting in
Describing the onset of a feeling or emotion
And I start to begin to fade away from it
Fading away from a situation or experience
And when I had a tighter grip I go
Reflecting on a loss of control or influence
Oh no, here we are again moving in
Returning to a similar situation as mentioned before
Slow motion, I'm getting pulled from all sides
Feeling pulled in different directions again
Oh no, time is falling faster out the window
Noting the passage of time and its fleeting nature
within a moment I could die
Highlighting the unpredictability and brevity of life
