Take It Slower (Version 2)

Intro

Half-time hush, the kick breathes low

Skin remembers what the drums don't know

Verse

Heel drags soft on the wet black floor

Your palm finds mine, we don't need more

Bassline melts to a syrup crawl

Shoulders dip when the high-hats stall

Pre-Chorus

Why's the room moving underwater slow?

Who told my hips to let it go?

Why do seconds stretch like this?

Who's counting time when we're wrapped in mist?

Chorus

Take it slower, take it slower

Sink into the low, let the tempo hold us

Skin on skin, we're moving closer

Take it slower, slower, slower

Verse

Snare pulls back, the strobe goes dim

Your breath on my neck, I'm sinking in

Clock hands melt on the DJ booth

Nobody's rushing to find the truth

Pre-Chorus

Why's the room moving underwater slow?

Who told my hips to let it go?

Chorus

Take it slower, take it slower

Sink into the low, let the tempo hold us

Skin on skin, we're moving closer

Take it slower, slower, slower

Bridge

Half a beat behind your heart

Half a breath before we start

Nobody's leaving, nobody's late

We're stuck right here in the in-between state

Outro

Slower... slower...

Hold the floor, don't let it go

Slower... slower
