Speeding Up To Slow Down Lyrics

If they calm you down,
Then excite them
If they call you out,
Then ignore them.

You're speeding up
You're speeding up
To slow down

When they all believe
You reject it.
When they all are for,
Be against it.

You're speeding up
You're speeding up
To slow down

If they call you out
They-will tear you down
When your world falls in
Then they'll leave you dry

You're speeding up
You're speeding up
To slow down
Down,down,down

Cover art for Speeding Up To Slow Down lyrics by Better Than Ezra

To me this song is about how people who don't conform to what society says is "normal" are told to change. And this song is saying not to listen to those people because they will leave you when the going gets tough.
