Static in my mind
Watched another century drift by
And you can't run away
From the facts that you find

Somewhere in between
You're a victim, you're a victory
Just a sad consequence
Of you're vanity

I believe there's a devil with me
He's shaking me like a loose leafed tree
And though I try to pretend
It never ends
Run and hide
Here he comes like a slow motion smile
Slow motion smile
Slow motion smile

Your life's in reverse
Just a crumpling of the universe
And if you meet yourself
You might come off worse

How else should I feel?
I’m a fallen leaf blowing in the breeze
And the harder I try
The further it seems

I've become everything that I see
Only birds and saints make their journeys complete
Everything's sliding again
Will it never end

Summertime
Here it comes like a slow motion smile
Slow motion smile
Slow motion smile

I've become everything that I see
Only birds and saints make their journeys complete
Everything's sliding again
Will it never end
Summertime
Here it comes like a slow motion smile
Slow motion smile
Slow motion smile
