Of Monsters And Men

Slow Life

What are they talking about
On the weekends?
Lost in the forest of this heart
Is a foreign still.

Why are they shaking their heads?
We're stuck in slow life
Is it the beating of the chest?
That makes us fear the rest.

We're slowly sailing away
Behind closed eyes
Where not a single ray of light
Can puncture through the night.

You caught me in the tide
And I caught you
Sheltered by the night
Red in tooth and red in claw.

You saw me in new light
And I saw you
Sheltered by the night
Red in tooth and red in claw.

Between the daylight
And the deep sea
Lies a swarm of silhouettes
Floating aimlessly.

But I'm a mountain
I am a killer
You'll get lost and buried deep
If you swim with me.

You caught me in the tide
And I caught you
Sheltered by the night
Red in tooth and red in claw.

You saw me in new light
And I saw you
Sheltered by the night
Red in tooth and red in claw.

So look at you look at me
All because we need to know
So look at me look at you
All because we'll never know.

So look at you look at me
All because we need to know
So look at me look at you
All because we'll never know.
