How to slow down

How to slow down
by Joel Howard

You have to
No I don't
You must
No, I won't
You crave this
No I don't
You're not enough
*Silence*

You're killing me
You're already dead
I hate you
I love you instead
You're pitiful
So are you
You don't do enough
*Silence*

Have you seen her? 
*Look the other way*
Have you seen him?
*Look the other way*
Have you checked this out? 
*Look the other way*
You're pathetic
*Silence*


Just when you've fought 50 times
Its time to fight again
Just when you've won again
Its time again to win

We think we're once victorious
And that will be enough
Fight, fight, fight again, my friend
We're in a battle called love

Its a fight to rest
A fight to slow
A fight to be yourself
So don't forget
The pain you're in
Is worth it, worth it all

Your peers go fast? 
Your friends faster still? 
The pressure thick as glue? 
Don't forget how Jesus bled
He paid it all
for you

I hate you
That's okay
I love you
Go away
Get behind me, devil, I say!
Rest, be mine today
Your hate, your love, I need it none
Rest, be mine today
Rest, be mine today
