Slowly

by Some Random Human   Nov 30, 2008


Once upon a time,
we were living a happy life,
no reason to our rhyme,
just taking it all in strife,
giving all we had,
to make it all work out,
ignoring what was bad,
never having doubt,
but,

You were slowly, slowly,
slipping away, slipping away,
you were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
we were slowly, slowly,
starting to decay,
we were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,

The morning that you left,
the morning you were gone,
seemed like such a theft,
there never was a dawn,
I laid there in my bed,
with a hole in my chest,
wishing I was dead,
no longer getting rest,
'cause,

You were slowly, slowly,
slipping away, slipping away,
you were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
we were slowly, slowly,
starting to decay,
we were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,

Looking back on it,
you never gave a sign,
you didn't throw a fit,
you didn't draw a line,
you just walked away,
just walked out the door,
leaving my heart to lay,
beating on the floor,
and,

You were slowly, slowly,
slipping away, slipping away,
you were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
we were slowly, slowly,
starting to decay,
we were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
you were slowly, slowly,
slipping away, slipping away,
you were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
we were slowly, slowly,
starting to decay,
we were slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
now,

I am slowly, slowly,
losing it today,
I am slowly, slowly,
disappearing,
I am slowly, slowly,
fading to gray,
I am slowly, slowly...
