The Lonely Slowly Loves

(Slowly loves, slowly loves, slowly loves, slow-)

All the lonely slowly loves

I can hear the coke in your jaw

I can tell that you have broken a law of attraction

I know what book you read

Based on the first words you said to me

I know the hybrid from your eyelids

I hear the violence in your silence

All the lonely slowly loves

I was looking for some substance

You offered me a trip

I said: Where you tryn'a go?

You said: Boy, I never know, but I'm always down to dip

Suddenly I'm a kid again

Clinging to some black obsidian

Guarding my meridians

Fall into oblivion, oh

All the lonely slowly loves

Oh water, but you kept me alive

Oh daughter, won't you let me arrive

Oh pain, but you kept me astride

Oh mind, let me stay here

Carbon doesn't play fair

I only trust the shungite

And I'll swallow all my pride to feed your ego

All the lonely slowly loves

But I would never let you Sconcé

I would never bring you round J

Never let it go beyond me

All my friends they call me Pompeii

Ashes and lashes all in my laundry

Broken hearts over broken minds

Still put in overtime 'cause mama said

All the lonely slowly loves

Slowly loves

Slowly loves

Slowly loves

Slow
