Slow Leak Songtext
von Butch Walker

I′m not ready to give up, I'm not that kind of ghost
The unspoken sleeps between us like a voice caught in your throat
Static is the only light we see anymore
Falling down

Do you feel it anymore? Black magic voodoo pins
Cutting paper hearts ′til they're too frail and slim
Where's that first-time feeling like a first fall wind
Leaving town

It′s been a slow leak, darlin′, we had nothin' but fun
Yeah, we had a good ride, yeah, we had a good run
But we just can′t pretend to be the only ones that don't come undone
Slow leak already begun


Remember death came to visit? Took your brother right on cue
So, we took a vacation just to get a different view
Took an Irish exit for the flame to find it′s way back to me and you

It's been a slow leak, lovely, it′s been nothing but fun
A one way ride, yeah, once in a lifetime run
But why should we pretend to be the only ones that won't come undone
Slow leak already begun

It's been a slow leak, baby, we had nothin′ but fun
Yeah, we had a good ride, yeah, we had a good run
But we just can′t pretend to be the only ones that don't come undone, yeah
It′s a far cry from heaven, now what have we become?
Yeah, we had a good ride, yeah, we had a good run
But we just can't pretend to be the only ones that don′t come undone
Slow leak already begun

Already begun
