Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band - Slowly (Oh So Slowly) lyrics

[Verse 1] Potential, well, you're a loaded line The veil between the world and the faceless bride There's nothing yet but a bunch of white Oh potential, well, you're a loaded line Tomorrow, well, I'll wait for you Laying right here floating in this swimming pool There's a lot of things I got left to do Oh tomorrow, but I'll wait for you The days keep slipping down into the cracks It takes a while to realize where you're at [Chorus] Slowly (so slowly) Slowly (so slowly) Slowly, it's slowly ending [Verse 2] Dementia, you better treat me good The human race is in its second childhood I never learn but I understood Oh dementia, you better treat me good Sometimes I need a place to go Cla**ical music plays from the radio I sit real still, let my shadow grow Yeah, sometimes I need a place to go My mind keeps slipping back into the past I hope someday that I can get it back [Chorus] Slowly (so slowly) Slowly (so slowly) Slowly, they're slowly ending So slowly Slowly (so slowly) Slowly (so slowly) Slowly, it's slowly ending [Bridge] And soon that train is going to pull away I hear it whistling, I try to wave at a glowing face They can't tell who I am [Chorus] Slowly (so slowly) Slowly (so slowly) Slowly, it's slowly ending
