Downtime - Tapestry

Slow it on down, slow it on down

Can I please come down?

Please just let me down

Slow it on down, slow it on down

Can I turn around?

Can I just slow it on down?

Slow it on down

Ants prancing around, oh the comfort of the ground

Please let me off of this thing

I’m nearly pulling down the strings

I’m so scared of where I’m going

Is it over?

Was that really it?

I know that I can’t fight it, could I just please be uninvited?

I’ll keep quiet I, won’t tell, it can’t be time to leave my shell behind

Can I design a life in time for my arrival

And chance survival like I’ve got a clue, a plan, or shoes

Cause' all I know is the ebb and flow

If I could sleep with open eyes…

If I could just fall asleep with open eyes…
