Stop the World Lyrics

I'm walkin' on broken eggshells
Tryin' to make some sense of this
Tryin' to save face with false appearances

I started with next to nothin'
And you're diggin' me a shallow grave
Tryin' to put a face on what's holding me back today

I'm sayin'
Ready for the world to stop
Takin' everything I got
Everybody's had enough
So stop the world 'cause I want off

Takin' everything I own
Sinkin' to an all-time low
Ready 'cause it's time to go
So stop the world 'cause I want off

I'm cookin' up a resurrection
I'll serve it to you on a silver plate
You don't want a taste of the fantasies that I create

An' I'm walkin' on broken eggshells
Tryin' to make some sense of this
Tryin' to save face with false appearances

I'm sayin'
Ready for the world to stop
Takin' everything I got
Everybody's had enough
So stop the world 'cause I want off

Takin' everything I own
Sinkin' to an all-time low
Ready 'cause it's time to go
So stop the world and let's go home

I'm cookin' up a resurrection
Serve it to you on a silver plate
You don't want a taste of the fantasies that I create

Ready for the world to stop
Takin' everything I got
Everybody's had enough
So stop the world 'cause I want off

Takin' everything I own
Sinkin' to an all-time low
Ready 'cause it's time to go
So stop the world 'cause I want off

I want off
I want off
I want to stop the world 'cause I want off
