If I Don’t Slow Down
TitanChord
If I don’t slow down… it don’t catch up
That’s what I learned — that’s enough
Keep it movin’, keep it straight
Don’t give nothin’ time to break
Got a stretch I ride real fast
Right where it all went bad
Don’t look left, don’t look right
Just cut clean through the night
Hands don’t shake at this speed
Funny what you get used to
If I don’t slow down
It don’t reach me
If I don’t turn ‘round
It can’t see me
If I don’t slow down
I stay clean
Just a blur in the dark
Of what I’ve been
There’s a mark on the guardrail bend
Seen it more than once again
Same curve, same dead light
Same place I don’t think twice
Radio’s off — I like it quiet
Lets me hear what’s underneath it
Engine hum, breath in line
Everything but what’s mine
Some things wait… some things chase
I don’t give ‘em space
If I don’t slow down
It don’t reach me
If I don’t turn ‘round
It can’t see me
If I don’t slow down
I stay clean
Just a blur in the dark
Of what I’ve been
You ever notice…
It ain’t the crash that gets you
It’s the moment before
When you know
…you could’ve stopped
If I don’t slow down
I don’t feel it
If I don’t stop now
I don’t deal it
If I don’t slow down
I stay gone
Just a shadow on a road
Rollin’ on
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.

Lyrics
If I don’t slow down… it don’t catch up That’s what I learned — that’s enough Keep it movin’, keep it straight Don’t give nothin’ time to break
Got a stretch I ride real fast Right where it all went bad Don’t look left, don’t look right Just cut clean through the night
Hands don’t shake at this speed Funny what you get used to
If I don’t slow down It don’t reach me If I don’t turn ‘round It can’t see me
If I don’t slow down I stay clean Just a blur in the dark Of what I’ve been
There’s a mark on the guardrail bend Seen it more than once again Same curve, same dead light Same place I don’t think twice
Radio’s off — I like it quiet Lets me hear what’s underneath it Engine hum, breath in line Everything but what’s mine
Some things wait… some things chase I don’t give ‘em space
If I don’t slow down It don’t reach me If I don’t turn ‘round It can’t see me
If I don’t slow down I stay clean Just a blur in the dark Of what I’ve been
You ever notice… It ain’t the crash that gets you
It’s the moment before When you know …you could’ve stopped
If I don’t slow down I don’t feel it If I don’t stop now I don’t deal it
If I don’t slow down I stay gone Just a shadow on a road Rollin’ on
