Count To Ten

There are faces, there are smiles, so many teeth, too many arms

And legs and eyes and flashing buttons all around me

I'ma watching, i'ma breathing, I'ma pushing, I'ma wishing

That these walls would not be talkin' quite so loudly

I have bent down once before, I've fold myself up from the floor

And I am lookin' for a reason to stay standing

But sometimes it's just too much, it's not enough, it's something else

It's so much bigger than my head, it's too demanding

Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to go slow

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

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

I have met so many people, we've exchanged so many words

We've said it all and we said nothing but it's changed us

I have known a lot of men, some were lovers, some were friends

But altogether were they merely passing strangers

They control you with their silence, they control you with their words

And you control them with your bodies, call it signals

In the wild and tangled gardens of out insecurities

We lose our heads into each other's sudden path falls

Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to go slow

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

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

Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to go slow

Yeah, and sometimes, if you wanna hold on, you got ta let go

I'm gonna close my eyes (One, two)

And count to ten (Three, four)

I'm gonna close my eyes (Five, six)

And when I open them again (Seven, eight)

Everything will make sense to me then (Nine, ten)
