Slow Motion

When date nights out are always in

and you just avoid that fight again

and time sneaks off with all he's stolen

that's the part where a heart gets broken

in slow motion

When you stop trusting your own words

‘cuz what gets said isn’t what gets heard

and you hold it together while you're tearing open

it’s hard when a heart gets broken

in slow motion

It’s not that hard to see

a life where every day is sweet

and we’re walking on the beach

we could get there by degrees…

When you weigh the years ahead and behind

and wonder if the work is worth the time

and the empty place inside held what was hoping

there are scars when a heart gets broken

yet here we are as our hearts get broken

in slow motion
