# Parasympathetic ## Verse 1 Three a.m. and my head won’t shut off TV light flickering through the dark Too many nights carrying all this weight Too wound up to slow my brain Rain hitting hard on the window glass Your fingertips moving across my back One deep breath when you pull me in And my whole body starts giving in --- ## Pre-Chorus Yeah your heartbeat next to mine Brings me back to life --- ## Chorus You slow me down When my mind runs fast You calm the storm inside my chest When the panic hits like that You bring me back Back to breathing again Pull me out the static Parasympathetic --- ## Verse 2 Sunrise breaking through the bedroom blinds Your hair falling across my side Your hand resting underneath my shirt Like you know where the tension hurts No noise spinning through my head Just your breathing beside the bed For the first time in a long long while I ain’t fighting myself tonight --- ## Pre-Chorus Every restless part of me Falls apart so peacefully --- ## Chorus You slow me down When my mind runs fast You calm the storm inside my chest When the panic hits like that You bring me back Back to breathing again Pull me out the static Parasympathetic --- ## Bridge (Production opens wide… warm harmonies… soft pulse) Spent my whole life running hot Like silence was something to fear Then you wrapped your arms around me And all the noise disappeared No pressure No ghosts No nowhere left to run Just your skin Your kiss And your heartbeat with mine --- ## Final Chorus You slow me down When my mind runs fast You calm the storm inside my chest When the panic hits like that You bring me back Back to breathing again Pull me out the static Parasympathetic You slow my heartbeat down Every time you pull me in Yeah you pull me out the chaos Parasympathetic
