Faith Alexis - slow down

What do you do
When the only thing
You still have in common
Happened years ago
And now you're just strangers
Watching each other
Grow into people
You don't know
Everything's changing so fast
All around me
Outgrowing me
Leaving me
Ahead of me
Gosh I wish I could go back to the simple things
And slow this thing down
Be kids a few more hours
Growing up was rushed
Now that I'm here
Growing up it sucks
Give me a few more years
To slow down
I seem to think about
The future and past
More than what's right in front of me
Like who will be here 10 years from now
And will any people turn and leave
The things that I've known so long
Are changing
Rearranging
I wanna make time patient
Sometimes I wish this wasn't the way it is
Please slow this thing down
Be kids a few more hours
Growing up was rushed
Now that I'm here
Growing up it sucks
Give me a few more years
To slow down
Don't wanna waste my time
Or waste my crying
Living in a future
I haven't untwined
The thought of losing
What I haven't lost
It keeps me up at night
It weighs on me
Who will I be
Without the people i've known standing next to me
I just wanna slow down
Be kids a few more hours
Growing up was rushed
Now that I'm here
Growing up it sucks
Give me a few more years
To slow down
