Slow down 

You wonder how I've been, you ain't been checking in 
Just hope my vital signs will send me home again 
My baby's in the grass, Jesus I'm a dad 
I drive myself insane just hoping I can stay 
My so-called life is so good

      (A5 G5) 
When deserts turn into floods, water gets covered with mud 
No magic coffin today, not today 
Who takes the race when I'm gone and celebrates from my throne? 
No magic coffin today, not today 

Why do we die? 
Why do we die? 
Why do we die? 
Why do we die?
