slow life

what are they talking about

on the weekends?

lost in the forest of this heart

is a foreign still

why are they shaking their heads?

we're stuck in slow life

is it the beating of the chest?

that makes us fear the rest

we're slowly sailing away

behind closed eyes

where not a single ray of light

can puncture through the night

you caught me in the tide

and i caught you

sheltered by the night

red in tooth and red in claw

you saw me in new light

and i saw you

sheltered by the night

red in tooth and red in claw

between the daylight

and the deep sea

lies a swarm of silhouettes

floating aimlessly

but i'm a mountain

i am a killer

you'll get lost and buried deep

if you swim with me

you caught me in the tide

and i caught you

sheltered by the night

red in tooth and red in claw

you saw me in new light

and i saw you

sheltered by the night

red in tooth and red in claw

so look at you look at me

all because we need to know

so look at me look at you

all because we'll never know

so look at you look at me

all because we need to know

so look at me look at you

all because we'll never know
