I don't know why, I don't know why
I'm so afraid
I don't know how, I don't know how
To fix the pain
We're living a lie, living a lie
This 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
If it'd finally let us be alone
Let us be alone

I'm hearing the noise, hearing the noise
From all around
I'm on the edge, I'm on the edge
Of 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
If it'd finally 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
If it'd finally let us be alone
Let us be alone
