                B-
                 
                There are faces, there are smiles
                
                So many teeth, too many arms and legs
                
                And eyes and flashing buttons all 
                
                A
                 
                around me
                
                I'm 
                
                B-
                 
                watching, I'm breathing, I'm pushing, I'm wishing
                
                That these walls would not be talking quite so 
                
                A
                 
                loudly
                
                I have 
                
                G
                 
                burnt down once before, I've pulled my-
                
                A
                 
                self up from the floor
                
                And I am 
                
                G
                 
                looking for a reason to stay 
                
                A
                 
                standing
                
                But some-
                
                B-
                 
                 times it's just too much
                
                Or it's just not enough with something else
                
                It's so much bigger than my head, it's too 
                
                A
                 
                demanding

G Sometimes, the A fastest way to get there is to go B- slow

-- Verse
            
                I have met so many people, we've exchanged so many words
                
                We've said it all and we've said nothing but it's changed us
                
                I have know a lot of men, some were lovers, some were friends
                
                But all together, were they merely passing strangers?
                
                They'll control you with their silence
                
                They'll control you with their words
                
                And you'll control them with your body's coded signals
                
                In the wild, entangled gardens of our insecurities
                
                We lose our heads into each other's hidden pitfalls

-- Verse

Sometimes, the fastest way to get there is to go slow

And sometimes if you wanna hold on, you got to let go

-- Chorus
            
                I'm gonna close my eyes
                
                And count to ten
                
                I'm gonna close my eyes
                
                And when I open them again
                
                Everything will make sense to me then

-- Verse

Sometimes, the fastest way to get there is to go slow

Yeah, and sometimes if you wanna hold on, you have to let go

-- Chorus
            
                I'm gonna close my eyes
                
                And count to ten
                
                I'm gonna close my eyes
                
                And when I open them again
                
                Everything will make sense to me then
