Moving Slow

Time is running out
I used to tell myself
I guess I always thought
I'd be somewhere else

Now I'm just resigned
There's nowhere I would go
Happily detached and
Moving slow

Just rest your pretty head
From what you'll never know
Let's go back to bed
Turn the lights down low

Empire's shallow grave
Vermillion glow
Twilit aftermath
Fading slow

Mad props to Lazy Jane
The queen is overthrown
But still she looks the same
Now that the kiss is blown

She says she knows me well
Enough to know
That I don't mind
Moving slow
