Stop the world

I don't know why, I don't know why I'm so afraid (so afraid)
I don't know how, I don't know how to fix the pain (fix the pain)
We're livin' a lie, livin' a lie, this needs to change (needs to change)
We're out of time, we're out of time and it's still the same

We can't stop the world
But there's so much more that we could do
You can't stop this girl from falling more in love with you
You said nobody has to know
Give us time to grow and take it slow
But I'd stop the world (I'd stop the world)
If it'd finally let us be alone
Let us be alone

I'm hearing the noise, hearing the noise from all around (all around)
I'm on the edge, I'm on the edge of breaking down (breaking down)
Like Bonnie and Clyde, let's find a ride and ditch this town
To keep it alive, keep it alive, don't make a sound

We can't stop the world
But there's so much more that we could do
You can't stop this girl from falling more in love with you
You said nobody has to know
Give us time to grow and take it slow
But I'd stop the world (I'd stop the world)
If it'd finally let us be alone (let us be alone)
Let us be

I never wanna take that final look
I'll turn another page, won't close the book

We can't stop the world
But there's so much more that we could do
You can't stop this girl from falling more in love with you
You said nobody has to know
Give us time to grow and take it slow
But I'd stop the world (I'd stop the world)
If it'd finally let us be alone (let us be alone)
Let us be alone
Let us be alone (let us be alone)
Let us be alone
