We both had it coming, had the same beat

Her mountain of pressure, and a rising of heat

And for the slightest moment I felt complete

With the world

Your head was resting

in my trembling arms

And right then and there that nothing could harm

Me and my girl

But it all came crashing down

With a blood stain on your mothers couch

She's a good Christian woman

But got plenty of doubts about

You and me

And if that's my greatest fear

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

They say it's worse with every year

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

Well you and I both know to get a bit wild

Sometimes I yell at you

like you were a little child

I can feel you slipping from my hold

And the harder I grasp

the more you want to let go

I can't help myself, no

Cause it all came crashing down

When Sunday rolled around

Her feeling with no base

Had me screaming in your face

That she'd leave me for one of these clowns

And if that's my greatest fear

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

They say it's worse with every year

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

Don't want to knock down your doors

For a moment that does not exist, no more

That simpler time, that I hold so dear

Stop the world I'll jump off right here

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

Right here, right here

Stop the world, I'll jump off right here

Stop the world
