We moved slow like shadows crawl
Time didn’t care for us at all
The clock hands spun
A frantic dance
We held our breath
Held our ground
While the noise spun all around
We weren’t rushing
But the world was
Chasing moments
Breaking laws
We stood still
Let it pass by
The world was rushing
We asked why
Feet on the grass
Sky so wide
City roared
We stepped aside
A quiet laugh
A stolen glance
Traffic lights
They blink and shout
But we don’t hear what they’re about
The rush
The race
It’s not our game
We’ll stay the same
Stay the same
We weren’t rushing
But the world was
Chasing moments
Breaking laws
We stood still
Let it pass by
The world was rushing
We asked why
