Lyric discussion by Alliezl 

Cover art for Slow and Steady lyrics by Of Monsters And Men

This song is about a relationship between "two wolves" (lovers) that is going to fast for singer even though it's actually moving at a slow pace. This doesn't make her "ready" to let go of being alone as her "shadow holds" her "and it never lets" her "go".

She's happy with the relationship but it's not going to work for her
