Slow me down :: Emmy Rossum

Rushing and racing
and running in circles
Moving so fast, I'm forgetting my purpose
Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning
Getting nowhere

My head and my heart are colliding, chaotic
Pace of the world
I just wish I could stop it
Try to appear like I've got it together
I'm falling apart

Save me
Somebody take my hand, and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
'Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flys by
I need you to slow me down

Sometimes I fear that I might dissapear
In the blur of fast forward I faulter again
Forgetting to breathe, I need to sleep
I'm getting nowhere

All that I've missed I see in the reflection
Passed me while I wasn't paying attention
Tired of rushing, racing and running
I'm falling apart

Tell me
Oh won't you take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
'Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flys by
I need you to slow me down

Just show me
I need you to slow me down

The noise of the world is getting me caught up
Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it
Just need to breathe, somebody please
Slow me down

minha mão é tua..

meu receio perdeu-se por entre o labirinto do teu sentir

leva-me por essa tua estrada destemida, onde as curvas não são mais do que uma forma de perder o horizonte por segundos,

e os obstáculos

pura ilusão

ao longe não sinto,

ao perto não vejo,

ao lado esqueço

minha mão

é tua..

***

metros percorro parecendo quilómetros..
milésimos de segundos passam por mim num olhar sem fim..
cada passo estagnado meu ansia pelo degrau seguinte, numa quase utópica viagem que tarda..

sentada por entre pensamentos que flutuam, aguardo o soar do tic tac perdido no tempo..
