Slower — текст песни (mineral)

It`s been so long since I`ve been by myself
And I need this more than you will ever know
People like you and me never felt the breeze
People like you and me will never know the easy way

I scream into the wind and laugh
As the words slap me in hte face
I would gladly trade a lifetime of convenience
For and honest day or two

It`s just not the same when you`re staring
Into a perfect golden sunset
And thinking about how you sold your soul
To send the rain away

It`s been so long since I`ve stood on my two feet
I`d really rather lay here and pretend
But people like you and me never get that peace
It comes from denying that everything is so screwed up
It`s so screwed up

I stand on a building and throw up my arms to the sky
I swallow my pride and admit
That it`s not always best to understand the reason why

It`s just not the same when you wake up in the morning
With a smile on your face
When you know you lied yourself to sleep to make it better
To make it better
