Can't Slow Down Songtext
von The Gone Jackals

I′m driving hard, punching holes in the heat
The air is clammy, a hamper full of nightmare's sheets.
I′m goin' fast like a fading blonde
No time for nothing but goin, goin', goin′ - gone.

Tire treads are smooth and hot
Goin′ 'round.
Sirens wailing long and loud
But what′s a man to do
If he can't slow down.
Just can′t seem to slow down

My brakes are failing, blasting through all the lights
My radiator's been blown since I was five.
The night is clinging and the sidewalks reel
My body′s rusted, I'm rotten, screaming steel.


Like a warrior who fights without shield
I'll go down.
You′ll see me smashed to bits in this town
Long before I′m due
'Cause I can′t slow down.
I just can't seem to slow down
I can′t slow down
I just can't seem to slow down

I′m knockin', knockin' underneath my hood. (knock, knock)
Don′t you inspect me, you know I just ain′t no good.

Tire treads are smooth and hot
Goin' ′round.
You'll see me smashed to bits in this town
Long before I′m due
'Cause I can′t slow down.
I just can't seem to slow down
I can't slow down
I just can′t seem to slow down
