Born Ruffians So Slow lyrics

I won't bleed if I don't recognize the disease
I don't see what is right out in front of me
the change can be so slight you hardly see
I believe I am healthy where I be

Thoughts can breed, but in light they remain a seed
stuck with me in a stupid tragedy
slow, slow speed and want for sympathy
slow is me in the throes of some disease

slow
awfully slow

eyes evacuating me
as everything around me is covered in disease
I am protected by a tree
words flood around my head now with the fleas

then realize that's what it takes
walking with my feet looking back at my face
all my stupid words trying to erase me
I am not scared to die, I'm scared to be replaced

Oh, so slow
slow like a thunder roll
my pollution rolls of the earth into the hole
black and white slow mo
treat it with the chemo
but it breads and grows and it comes so

slow
awfully slow
