keep Old doubts in my pocket, coins I never spend

 I'm tired of paying interest to a fear that won't end

 I used to ask the sky for a reason to begin Now I count small breaths like a quiet kind

 of wind No more waiting for the world to understand

 I'm learning how to hold it with my own two hands

 If I walk it inch by inch, it turns into a mile

 If I keep my head up steady, I might remember how to smile

 Horizon end, guide me home, guide me home, guide me home

 Horizon end, I won't fall, I won't fall, I won't fall

 Curtains I've drawn, city lights on low Your name in my mouth, like smoke I won't let go

 I've been moving fast, through days I couldn't feel Now your quiet hands remind me what is real

 Soft talk in the dark, no need to explain We let the room breathe out away the rain

 I don't want the whole rush, I don't want the noise Just a gentler kind of love that makes a man rejoice

 When you lean and the world gets small Everywhere he loses tone

 If my heart was running wild, you'd bring it back to home

 Embers in slow motion Stay close, stay close, oh

 Embers in slow motion Don't go, don't go, don't go

 No fireworks, no headlines Just a one pulse and a steady time

 Embers in slow motion Stay close, right here, right here

 Shakers on the back beat, like a whisper in the air

 Rose laying velvet, where your breath meets my stare

 Guitar chop on the offbeat, threading through the night

 Baseline like an anchor, keeping everything alright

 I've said I'm fine too many times to mean it

 But you hear the cracks and you don't try to seal it

 You just sit with me, you don't ask me to perform

 And the silence turns to shelter, and my chest gets warm

 If tomorrow has a storm, we'll take it slow, not brave

 Embers in slow motion Don't go, don't go, don't go

 No fireworks, no headlines Just a one pulse and a steady time

 Embers in slow motion Stay close, right here, right here
