Letra de Slow Road

Living in the city feels like crying in the rain
Until you learn how to scream everybody looks the same
I'm gonna empty my pockets for a mountain bound train
Write a song and meet a girl along the way
Come on, fast train speed it up
I want to get out to where I haven't been
Oh, poor boy, don't you know it's the slow road
That's gonna catch the wind
She left me standing there with my eyes on fire
I found the wind when I fell upon her lips
She ran hard and fast into the night
Saying shame on you for being afraid of this
Come on, fast train speed it up
I want to find out where my heart landed
Oh, poor boy, don’t you know it’s buried inside of you
Right where you left it
I’ve seen angry people hiding their faces in the dark
Spitting words like stones they’d built around their hearts
And there were children with the broken eyes of old men
Because their child eyes had been stolen from them
Come on, fast train speed it up
I want to find out if God exists
Oh, poor boy, don’t you know it’s the hands of man
That have ruined this
The world’s as small as a stone I can hide it under my hands
But it’s too heavy to hold for all I don’t understand
And it’s as empty as this heart I’ve yet to know
But it’s what I don’t have that keeps me coming around for more
Come on, fast train speed it up
I want to get out to where the grass is green
Oh, poor boy, don’t you know it’s only as green as you believe
