In slow motion (demo)

Dreamy city
still and quiet in the morning sun
Walking empty streets
Where on earth is everyone?
A silent sky above
clouds scattered in the blue
It’s a perfect day for love
if that’s your point of view

Living in slow motion
nothing seems quite real
Where’s the old commotion?
What’s the new big deal?

I’m just a failed flaneur
looking for a gadabout
but where that life is lived
I have yet to figure out

There’s no one to tell me
No one to catch my eye
Living in slow motion
It’s a long goodbye

I’m looking for someone
to help me get into here
A practical dreamer
Who is gonna volunteer?

Living in slow motion
nothing feels quite real
Such a strange emotion
What will be revealed?

Living in slow motion
nothing seems quite real
Such a strange emotion
What will be revealed?

In slow motion
drifting far behind
real time
Now I’m living in
slow motion
drifting far behind
real time
