Howie Day - Slow Down

[fairish]

an actress
sooner the better for me
you should know by now
i?m not your friend
you?re ravelled up
you take some time to come undone
you look so tired
i know your type
you storm out
and tear the walls,
the portraits down
it?s what you wanted
it?s how we are

take it or leave it
slow down slow down
i can stay awake for you
if you can stay awake for me
you?re broken to break down
slow down slow down
i?m not so sure
so wait and see

i wake up
girlfriend i?m on your floor
you should know by now
i?m not so mad
it?s go time
you?re barely dressed
but fully on
your painted eyes
you look so tired

i don?t think i can trust love anymore
i don?t think i can trust love anymore

Howie once claimed that he wrote this song for his blind dog (who apparently really digs it).
