[Intro]
Let's not accelerate too quickly
And let's not grow up too fast
See if we can stand still
While still moving our feet
Then how slow the future can pa** us by
[Verse 1]
We always said we wouldn't go too far
But never surveyed to see just where that falls
If we'd been smart enough to look ahead
We would have seen the land
Been able planned, but, but now instead
Whoah, I'm torn in two pieces, so
[Chorus]
Let's not accelerate too quickly
And let's not grow up too fast
See if we can stand still
While still moving our feet
Then how slow the future can pa** us by
[Verse 2]
We never thought we'd have to set our sights
Long as we sailed we'd be alright
But now that we've seen just how
Just how the current pulls
We see that there is more, asked you to port
'Cause there's a raging storm right now
And I don't want to drown
When someone can save us, so
[Chorus]
Let's not accelerate too quickly
And let's not grow up too fast
See if we can stand still
While still moving our feet
Then how slow the future can pa** us by
Us by, us by, us by
[Bridge]
But now oh, I'm bound
By these boundaries that I've failed to see
Someone explain just how far is too far for me
There was a competition for sharing my thoughts
Because I'd been losing, oh, all would be lost to this
So much wisdom meant knowing how to say
"Here's all I can give away"
Let's not accelerate too quickly
And let's not grow up too fast
[Chorus]
Let's not accelerate too quickly
And let's not grow up too fast
See if we can stand still
While still moving our feet
Then how slow the future can pa** us by
Us by, us by, us by, us by
Us by
