Another find by Jeff... I really like the lyrics of this song (yes I know many will find it annoying...I've already read people's complaints), but when a strong strikes a chord in your own story... well, you can't help but be drawn to it. I'll Italisize the parts that resonate with me...what about you?
Emmy Rossum- "Slow Me Down"
rushing and racing and running in circles
moving so fast I'm forgetting my purpose
blur of the traffic is sending me spinning
getting nowhere
my head and my heart are colliding chaotic
pace of the world I just wish I could stop it
Try to appear like I've got it together
I'm falling apart
save me
somebody take my hand and lead me
slow me down
don't let love pass me by
just show me how
cause I'm ready to fall
slow me down
don't let me live a lie
before my life flies by
I need you to slow me down
sometimes I fear that I might disappear
in the blur of fast forward I falter again
forgetting to breathe
I need to sleep
I'm getting nowhere
all that I've missed I see in the reflection
pass me while I wasn't paying attention
tired of rushing, racing and running
I'm falling apart
tell me
oh won't you take my hand and lead me
slow me down
don't let love pass me by
just show me how
cause I'm ready to fall
slow me down
don't let me live a lie
before my life flies by
i need you to slow me down
just show me
i need you to slow me down
slow me down
slow me down
the noise of the world is getting me caught up
chasing the clock and i wish i could stop it
just need to breathe
somebody please
slow me down

I've actually been thinking about doing a music week. Maybe this will kick a series off???
She was actually in the remake of the Phantom of the Opera a few years ago. Good stuff.
