- Songwriters: Jesse Hasek, Brian Vodinh, Matt Wantland
Deep under the surface I keep the love
Older and aware of a hidden universe
I pray to be young and pray to be inspired
But words of your tongue blister like fire
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
There is a glimpse of death in your eyes
I'm not prepared to let out those cries
I'll pray to stay young, soon will be expired
So lost in denial
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
Reach in her womb, sheltered from strife
Bearing the gifts and burdens of life
I pray to stay young but soon will be expired
An age of innocence long since gone
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
Those who are looking backwards
Chose to live as statues
Frozen, fractured
Youthful laughter fades
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
Dying days of my youth
Overtake me
I can't let you go
Slow down, don't leave
The dying days of my youth
Overtake me
