Devin Townshend - Slow Me Down LYRICS

9. Slow Me Down

It's so easy when you call
I was waiting by the phone
Knowing that you're all alone
And I ask you when you call;
'But will you wait for me?'
...Will you wait for me?
Cause in a while I'll never look behind
Even when I'll nearly lose my mind
So when the devil wins that toss
Will we be making it across?
Hang on...
Want it ,need it,
My want is found and feeding,
Hanging around with a girl
'Cause I want it, need it,
So bad I can hardly breathe but it slows me down.
And through all we bear the scars,
on the soul, through the stars,
Alone...
Forever we roam.
And you ask me when you call;
'But will you wait for me?'
...I will wait for you!
Cause in a while I'll never look behind
Even when I'll nearly lose my mind
So when the devil wins that toss
Will they be making it a cross?
Hang on...
Want it ,need it,
My want is found and feeding,
Hanging around with a girl
'Cause I want it, need it,
So bad I can hardly breathe but it slows me down.
Feel it in my mind and soul
Feel it in my constant lies
Feel it now, feel it go away... OH YEAH!
I WANNA GO, WHERE NOBODY'S GONE
WHILE HANGING AROUND WITH THAT GIRL
'CAUSE NOBODY KNOWS WHERE THE RIVER FLOWS NOW...
YOU'VE SLOWED ME DOWN!!!
