Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The ink on your tattoo is slowly fading
The breaks upon your heart are leaving scars
The battles for your freedom, you've been winning
They bought you time
But they're costing you the war
Slowing down
It don't come easy
[Verse 2]
When running hard's been flowing through your blood
You've said goodbye so many times
It's lost its meaning
Memories are all thats left to love
Oh believe me, slowing down
It don't come easy
[Verse 3]
The wasted years of loving motel rooms
Your boots under another stranger's bed
Waking in the morning way too soon
You're leaving, you's as lonely as it gets
Slowing down
Don't come easy
[Verse 4]
When running hard's been flowing through your blood
You've said goodbye so many times
It's lost its meaning
And memories are all thats left to love
Oh believe me, slowing down
[Verse 5]
It don't come easy
You can't stop the clock and turn back the time
But for her heart and soul
It's worth trying
Slowing down
It don't come easy
[Verse 6]
When running hard's been flowing through your blood
You've said goodbye so many times
It's lost its meaning
And memories are all thats left to love
Oh believe me, slowing down
Oh believe me, slowing down
Don't come easy
