Stop the World Lyrics

It's the same routine

Day after day

No risk of doing something new

In my comfortable prison

Pull the covers tight

I was almost cold

I need a distraction

I almost thought something that I wasn't told

It's not like I'm being forced to stagnate

Or that there's some divine mandate

Made to shackle me down and oppress

Could you stop the world

I'd like to get off

Could you stop the world

I wanna start it all over

Could you stop the world

I'd like to get off

Could you stop the world

I wanna start it all over

The panic of change gets me going

The thought of my death keeps me flowing

But when I'm safe and sound

It's like I'm on the edge of the earth and I'm looking down

I don't need to be a vagabond

I just need to rattle my chains

Rattle my chains and put my hands on the cage

It's the feeling of being stuck

Frozen in place

Paralyzed, paralyzed

All because I'm safe

Could you stop the world

I'd like to get off

Could you stop the world

I wanna start it all over

Could you stop the world

I'd like to get off

Could you stop the world

I wanna start it all over

Could you stop the world

I'd like to get off

Could you stop the world

I wanna start it all over

Could you stop the world

I'd like to get off

Could you stop the world

I wanna start it all over
