Griptape Songtext
von Rude Buddha

I′m a soldier of circumstance
Who always needs a second chance
Trying to prove myself to the world
Over and over and over and over again
Man, I'm tired of getting burned
I guess it′s time that I finally learned
To never mean anything
That means nothing to me

Slow down this train 'cause I wanna get off
Slow down the pain, I need to loosen my stress
I need to loosen up
Slow down this train 'cause I wanna get off
Slow down the pain, I need to loosen my stress
I need to loosen up


Now I seem to recognize
My past, the tears I used to cry
Never again will I roll over and die
This marred life made me who I am
And I finally understand
That there′s beauty in chaos
Who cares about the meaning of life?

Slow down this train ′cause I wanna get off
Slow down the pain, I need to loosen my stress
I need to loosen up
Slow down this train 'cause I wanna get off
Slow down the pain, I need to loosen my stress
I need to loosen up

And I′m not gonna watch life pass me by
Motivation is only one reason why
This world can't take me
So watch me while I try
Yeah, I′m gonna try
Yeah, and I'm not gonna wait around
For someone to save me, yeah

Slow down this train ′cause I wanna get off
Slow down the pain, I need to loosen my stress
I need to loosen up
Slow down this train 'cause I wanna get off
Slow down the pain, I need to loosen my stress
My stress


Slow down this train 'cause I wanna get off
Slow down this pain ′cause I need to get off
Slow down this train ′cause I wanna get off
Slow down this pain 'cause I need to get off
And I′m not gonna watch life pass me by
Motivation is only one reason why
This world can't take me
So watch me while I try
