I've laid with fools Shook hands with the devil to break free from the rules I must confess I take more than my share so you could have less Live like a motto without any cause I've doubted myself if you'd only help me Stop the world from spinning me around I want to stop the world and start all over Stop the world before I hit the ground I want to stop the world from taking over me, yeah I've been a thief and I've paid for the privilege with tears of grief I, I'm to blame and my loneliness burns like a ragged flame There's blood on my hands, I can't make it go away Nothing can keep me from trying Stop the world from spinning me around I want to stop the world and start all over Stop the world before I hit the ground I want to stop the world from taking over me With me or without me, this world keeps on turning Keeps me down! ♪ Live like a motto without any cause I've doubted myself If you'd only help me Stop the world from spinning me around I want to stop the world and start all over Stop the the world before I hit the ground I want to stop the world from taking over me, yeah Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!
