​slow motion Lyrics by Melina Blanco

i told myself i wouldn’t write another sad song

2021

[Verse]
Last night call a taxi
Writes back, "20 minutes"
So we wait, mix some cherry juice and rum
Drive fast, take a picture
My friends in the mirror
Advice, don't get wasted don't be dumb
[Pre-Chorus]
Green lights and the music's booming
I can't even hear my own voice through it
Let a dancing stranger hold me
If we only knew what was coming
[Chorus]
Looking back it's in slow motion
Watch it play over and over again
Feel the blur of hours, tears in the shower
I'd give it all to hit rewind
[Verse]
So we sit in a sunbed
As we watch the night get undressed
And then slowly things just start to fall apart
Cos I'm feeling panicked
As you bouncе through the masses
Don't make еye contact cos they'll rip out your heart
[Pre-Chorus]
Lost my friends and my voice and my patience
Clutch my phone through my 2008 bag
Cos I'm a bitch in their eyes, so dilated
Too sober to be this inebriated
[Chorus]
And looking back it's in slow motion
Watch it play over and over again
Feel the blur of hours, tears in the shower
I'd give it all to hit
Looking back it's in slow motion
Watch it play over and over again
Feel the blur of hours, tears in the shower
I'd give it all to hit rewind
[Bridge]
And to think I was calling it the worst night
Of my life at midnight
Never have I ever been a prude or had a life
2 hours since midnight
And they had promised me that they'd be home by this time
3 hours since midnight
I fall asleep at five
I wake up to the cries
You run in through the door
I see it in slow motion
[Outro]
Tears fall and we let them
We hold hands till we forget them
Till quarter to seven, it's so bright
And the sun rises gently
As we watch the birds with envy
Cos all she wants to do is fucking fly
Guess we can't have too much amazing
Cos I'm feeling the way that you're shaking
So destroyed and confused and so hurt
This slow motion night was our worst
