Slow It Down

The glass is half empty, don't you see
 There's nothing I can do to change these tired melodies
 Crawling around on all fours
 Passing up all the open doors
 Crowded room full of furrowed brows
 Looking at me like it's not my house
 Slowly back out the doorway
 I'll be back some other day
 Maybe a lifetime, I can't say
 So, easy does it my friend
 Got a long way to the end
 Slow it down, slow it down again
 Or you'll never be let back in
 Alright
 My fingers pass all these worn out strings
 My body shakes under the heaviest of things
 What is right, and what is wrong
 One man's blood upon my trembling palms
 Put up a good enough fight
 (The earth it)? shifts left of the moon and shifts right
 Twisted, tangled in love and in life
 One more step and I'll be gone
 Dark down 'neath the cemetary wall
 So, easy does it my friend
 Got a long way to the end
 Slow it down, slow it down again
 Or you'll never be let back in
 So, easy does it my friend
 Got a long way to the end
 Slow it down, slow it down again
 Or you'll never be let back in, oh
