Staring out the window
Watching the world go by
Oh
Sometimes it's as if God
Takes too long
Why don't I just take my own life?

But then my better sense kicks in
Sit back and take a breath
Why am I thinking like that?
I'm only thinking of myself

Slow down, boy
Relax
Momentary setback
Don't take it so fast
Slow down boy
Relax
You'll make it back
Quick, fast, in a hurry

Standing at the water's edge
As my dreams float by
Ooh
I can't remember a time
When anything went right
I might just keep stepping on
Into the river's arms open wide

But I'll hang on and ride
Suicide
Pray the night
Every life is a gift
Holy light
Sanctify

Slow down boy, relax
Momentary setback
Don't take it so fast
Slow down boy, relax
You'll make it back
Quick fast in a hurry

Slow down boy (x3)

Slow down boy (x3)

Slow down boy, relax
Momentary setback
Don't take it so fast
Slow down boy
Relax
You'll make it back
Quick, fast, in a hurry
