You try to change the way you're feeling
But you lost it all gone
And all the challenges you're given
Have proved to be too strong
You're the only one to blame
You keep running but you can't escape
Your perfect life's fading away
You gotta slow down love
Before it takes you out and you let it slip away
Don't slip away
You gotta slow down love
Before your lights go out and the devil's made his way
Only the brave
Will make it out before it gets too late
You're trying hard to find forgiveness
In a sea that's full of lies
And even though you're feeling helpless
You still put up a good fight
You truly thought that you would learn after watching all your treasures burn
But you're inching closer to the flame
You gotta slow down love
Before it takes you down and you let it slip away
Don't slip away
You gotta slow down love
Before the lights go out and the devil's made his way
Only the brave
Will make it out before it gets too late
All the warning signs are gone
Oh you're barely hanging on
No one's left to hear you scream
The silence is deafening
But there's something still inside
And it's keeping you alive
It's hidden in the dark
Baby you're stronger than you thought
Slow down love
Before it takes you out
And you let it slip away
Don't slip away
You gotta slow down love
Before your lights go out
And the devil's made his way
Only the brave will make it out before it gets too late
