Slow Motion Lyrics - Lupercalia - Patrick Wolf

Before you, I was living 

In my silverfish kitchen 

Fruit fly clouds breathing 

No hope, no religion 

The nightmare on Haslett Road 

I was too young to weep from the road 

Too proud for health, too scared to grow 

Out of my depth and out of control 

I was so lonely there 

Living in slow motion, breathless corrosion 

Waiting for the kiss of life 

Slow motion, breathless corrosion 

Waiting for the kiss of life, the kiss of life 

Waiting for your kiss of life 

City rumors, spreading deep water, both treading 

Yes, I was too young to weep from the road 

And too proud for help, too scared to grow 

Out of my depth and out of control 

The strangers meet in 

Slow motion, breathless devotion 

That night you gave me the kiss of life 

Slow motion, breathless, breathless 

That night you gave me the kiss of life 

The kiss of life 

That night you saved me 

With the kiss of life 

Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin' 

Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin' 

Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin' 

Wake me out of that deep sleep, darlin' 

With your kiss 

Wake me out of that deep sleep 

Deep sleep, darlin' 

Deep sleep, darlin'
