"slower" lyrics

"slower"

Playing cool makes me lose my mind
I can't be someone I don't recognize
I'm not the type to have to say it twice
Or wait for you 'til the end of the night

I've been falling fast and you don't seem to move
But is it worse for me, if I tell the truth?
And are you just a poison that I shouldn't use?
Wish I could say to you
What I can't say to you

We could take it slower
Wait until we're older
But I might be somebody
You might not even know her
I'm going through changes
It's a rollercoaster
But I might be somebody
You might not even know her
We could take it slower

We could take it slower

Who knows who I'll be tomorrow
But I hope that you still like her the same
We might end up strangers somehow
You should get to know me today

I've been falling fast and you don't seem to move
But is it worse for me, if I tell the truth?
And are you just a poison that I shouldn't use?
Wish I could say to you
What I can't say to you

We could take it slower
Wait until we're older
But I might be somebody
You might not even know her
I'm going through changes
It's a rollercoaster
But I might be somebody
You might not even know her
We could take it slower

We could take it slower

I've been falling fast and you don't seem to move
But is it worse for me, if I tell the truth?
And are you just a poison that I shouldn't use?
Wish I could say to you
What I can't say to you

We could take it slower
Wait until we're older
But I might be somebody
You might not even know her
I'm going through changes
It's a rollercoaster
But I might be somebody
You might not even know her
We could take it slower
We could take it slower

Speaking about "Slower" in an interview with Nylon, Tate McRae said, "This one's so funny because I wrote this when I was 14, and I loved it. But the problem is, when you sit on a song for two years, it becomes really stale and you just hate it. That's what kind of happened with this song. So my team pulled it out again and were like, 'We should listen to this one again.' And I was like, 'No, no, no. I don't like it, and I sound super squeaky on it. I sound like I'm 14.' We reproduced the whole thing. I rewrote a few lyrics and I recorded it in my 17-year-old voice, and it sounded completely different."
