Slow It Down

I feel her filth in my bones Wash off my hands 'til it's gone The walls they're closing in With velvet curtains Some love was made for the lights Some kiss your cheek and goodnight Lift up a red high heel Lock up your doors with steel They're making noise in my street My blinds are drawn, I can't see Smashed in my car window Didn't touch the stereo Slow it down, Angie, come back to bed Rest your arms and rest your legs Act like you've been here before Smile less and dress up some more Tie up your scarf real tight These boys are out for blood tonight Slow it down, Angie, come back to bed Rest your arms and rest your legs And when she stood, she stood tall She'll make a fool of you all Don't ask for cigarettes She ain't got nothing left for you I never, she never, we never looked back That wasn't what we were good at And when it came to love We were not good enough Slow it down, Angie, come back to bed Rest your arms and rest your legs Don't you frown when you're feeling like that Only love can dig you out of this
