lyrics

I wish there was a way
That I could lay in bed all day
And watch through the window
As the sun fades
I wish there was a place
Where I'm not labeled as lazy
You'd hear my voice
And not think I'm crazy

Just slow down
Slow down
We're moving too fast
Slow down
Slow down
Don't let your daydreams pass away

I heard a strange man claim
That in a second I could be changed
But I failed to listen when he said
Look at what you've made
It amounts to nothing minus everything
And there's nothing you can do
To make that change

Unless you slow down
Slow down
You're moving too fast
Slow down
Slow down
Don't let your daydream pass away
Don't let it pass away
