you had asked
so all this
is gonna pour
right on you
& everyone’s tellin’ me
that I’m goin’ too fast
I’m goin’ too fast
but maybe
they’re not goin’ fast enough
for me to slow down.
and I wish
I had nothing to say to you
so I’ve held back
you had enough to slow you down
& I’m goin’ too fast
I’m goin’ too fast
but maybe
my mouth wouldn’t be fast enough
to get it all down.
but you had asked
so all of it
is now on you
think of me
as everyone tells me
that I’m goin’ too fast
I’m goin’ too fast
but maybe
Life isn’t goin’ fast enough
for me to stick around.
