Slow down, slow down Start from the beginning But not the very beginning With silence and a whimper And the pinprick of light That became the ocean in your iris And the salt water in your eyes Slow down, slow down Don't lie anymore When the mountains are crowns We could always sleep In the rubble And when the avalanche comes We'll cross our fingers Behind our backs Slow down, slow down There is so much less Oxygen here And if we can't breathe We could always dance Under five feet of snow And you can take your time To learn the steps.
