Slowly, it's slowly ending

As you (my handful of readers) may have noticed, I have not been posting my regularly top five songs of each month- and now that I'm halfway through the year, I'm feeling a little sad that I haven't. So, just to get me back in the groove, I thought I'd post a song that I'm most certain would have ended up in one of the months. And one that I'm really loving right now.





Potential, you're a loaded line
The veil between the world and the faceless bride
There's nothing yet but a bunch of white
Oh, potential, you're a loaded line

Tomorrow, I will wait for you
Laying right here, floating in this swimming pool
There's a lot of things I've got left to do
Oh, tomorrow, I will wait for you

The days keep slipping down into the cracks
It takes a while to realize where you're at

Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, it's slowly ending

Dementia, you better treat me good
The human race is in a second childhood
I never learned but I understood
Oh, dementia, you better treat me good

Sometimes, I need a place to go
Classical music plays from a radio
I sit real still, let my shadow grow
Yeah, sometimes, I need a place to go

My mind keeps slipping back into the past
I hope someday that I can get it back

Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, its slowly ending
Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, its slowly ending

And soon that train is going to pull away
I hear it whistling
I try to wave
At a blurry face
They can't tell who I am

Slowly (so slowly), slowly (so slowly), slowly, its slowly ending
