I Wish I Could Slow the West

I awake to find a barrage of petitions
Aimed at me, but just a state of our conditions
In a garden of digital roses
I can see but I feel no petals
I wish I could slow the West
Slow it down so I could see it best
I wish I could slow the West
I ain't even seen the rest
I wish I could slow the West
Slow it down so I could see it best
I wish I could slow the West
Take the pain out from my chest
Well I feel like I'm staring at a wall of a thousand pictures
Each depicting life and where they place their riches
A multitude of colour to attract the senses
But this attack feels so senseless
In a garden of digital roses
I can see but I feel no petals
All that I know is
I wish I could slow the West
Slow it down so I could see it best
I wish I could slow the West
I ain't even seen the rest
I wish I could slow the West
Slow it down so I could see it best
I wish I could slow the West
Suddenly I am taken up through the clouds
And all my chains fall back down
Though I cannot slow the West
You will give me precious rest
Though I cannot slow the West
Through your eyes I'll see it best
Through your eyes I'll see it best
Through your eyes I'll see it best
Through your eyes I'll see it best
Through your eyes I'll see it best
