I Need You to Slow Me Down


This post is from my time off from work, visiting family and friends. More specific, My old Dance Group. They have been rehearsing for the summer 3 awesome choreographies and here are some shots of the rehearsal. 

The most meaningful of them is a contemporary piece, danced to Emmy Rossum´s Slow Me Down. Every word the song speaks reflects the hectic lifes most of us have and the need to just stop, breathe and  realize how beautiful life can be if we only slow down.

Rushing and racing 
and running in circles

Moving so fast, I'm forgetting my purpose
Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning
Getting nowhere

My head and my heart are colliding, chaotic
Pace of the world
I just wish I could stop it

Try to appear like I've got it together
I'm falling apart

Save me
Somebody take my hand, and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
'Cause I'm ready to fall

Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flys by
I need you to slow me
down

Sometimes I fear that I might dissapear
In the blur of fast forward I faulter again
Forgetting to breathe, I need to sleep
I'm getting nowhere

All that I've missed I see in the reflection
Passed me while I wasn't paying attention
Tired of rushing, racing and running
I'm falling apart

Tell me
Oh won't you take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by Just show me how
'Cause I'm ready to fall

Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flys by
I need you to slow me down

Just show me
I need you to slow me down

The noise of the world is getting me caught up
Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it

Just need to breathe, somebody please
Slow me down
