Speeding Slowly Songtext
von Scott Matthews

Will you shut up
I′ve got something to say
But you just stand there laughing
Right in my face
Don't waste my time
And I won′t waste yours
But when you're eyes deep slurring
You won't know whether to call
Cause you never gave much thought to me at all

You′re sleeping on a subway train
Speeding slowly away
Your destination never came
Now there′s nothing to pay
A different side of your brain is
Speeding slowly away


I've seen your face
I know you′re not real
Who'd have thought you′d be caught
Under the wheels
You've been stubbed out
Like a cigarette
You′re in the gutter fluttering
Spat out from the mouth
Of old barrels dregs, no one like a bitter taste

You're sleeping on a subway train
Speeding slowly away
Your destination never came
Now there's nothing to pay
A different side of your brain is
Speeding slowly away

You′ve woken on a derailed train
Speeding slowly away
Handcuffed to your bitter end
There′s always someone to pay
Always turns out that way
You're speeding slowly away
Slowly away
You′re speeding slowly away
