Slow Motion

Before you, I was livingIn my silverfish kitchenFruit fly clouds breathingNo hope, no religionThe nightmare on Haslett RoadI was too young to weep from the roadToo proud for health, too scared to growOut of my depth and out of controlI was so lonely thereLiving in slow motion, breathless corrosionWaiting for the kiss of lifeSlow motion, breathless corrosionWaiting for the kiss of life, the kiss of lifeWaiting for your kiss of lifeCity rumors, spreading deep water, both treadingYes, I was too young to weep from the roadAnd too proud for help, too scared to growOut of my depth and out of controlThe strangers meet inSlow motion, breathless devotionThat night you gave me the kiss of lifeSlow motion, breathless, breathlessThat night you gave me the kiss of lifeThe kiss of lifeThat night you saved meWith the kiss of lifeWake me out of that deep sleep, darlinWake me out of that deep sleep, darlinWake me out of that deep sleep, darlinWake me out of that deep sleep, darlinWith your kissWake me out of that deep sleepDeep sleep, darlinDeep sleep, darlin
