PATRICK WOLF – Slow Motion

Before you, I was living
In my silverfish kitchen
Fruit fly clouds breathing
No hope, no religion
The nightmare on Haslett Road

I was too young to weep from the road
Too proud for health, too scared to grow
Out of my depth and out of control
I was so lonely there

Living in slow motion, breathless corrosion
Waiting for the kiss of life
Slow motion, breathless corrosion
Waiting for the kiss of life, the kiss of life
Waiting for your kiss of life

City rumors, spreading deep water, both treading

Yes, I was too young to weep from the road
And too proud for help, too scared to grow
Out of my depth and out of control
The strangers meet in

Slow motion, breathless devotion
That night you gave me the kiss of life
Slow motion, breathless, breathless
That night you gave me the kiss of life

The kiss of life
That night you saved me
With the kiss of life

Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin’
Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin’
Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin’
Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin’
With your kiss

Wake me out of that deep sleep
Deep sleep, darlin’
Deep sleep, darlin’
