Stop The World
Love's Forbidden Dance: Embracing Desires in 'Stop The World'
Lyrics
Know this isn't right
Feeling a sense of wrongdoing
But it feels so good to us
Despite the moral conflict, the experience is enjoyable
When we're in our own minds
In the realm of our thoughts and imagination
Pretending it's all fine, mhm-mhm
Pretending that everything is okay
Blending it all out
Ignoring reality
But it hits us every time
Confronting the truth has an emotional impact
When we're not together
Feeling the impact of separation
We're hurting each other
Mutually causing emotional harm when apart
I can't hide
Unable to conceal emotions
I can't get enough (get enough)
Desire for more
And I want us to collide
Expressing a wish for a collision, a deep connection
We can finally be one (we can finally be one)
Hope for unity and oneness
We're wasting time
Wasting time without pursuing desires
While we know what we want
Aware of what is wanted
But it's impossible to try
Challenges in making an attempt
'Till we're committing to us
Commitment needed for a relationship to thrive
I can't stop the world from falling
Unable to prevent the challenges in life
I can't stop the world
Acceptance of the inability to control external forces
But when your skin is so close to mine
Physical closeness can provide a momentary escape
Then we can stop the world
The power of connection to create a personal world
I can't hide
Unable to conceal emotions (repeated)
I can't get enough (get enough)
Desire for more (repeated)
And I want us to collide
Expressing a wish for a collision, a deep connection (repeated)
We can finally be one (we can finally be one)
Hope for unity and oneness (repeated)
You and I
Both individuals are fueled by love
Are running on love (ay, ay, ay)
Running on the energy of love
Wish that we could stop the time
Desire to stop time to prolong the experience
'Cause I can't get enough (oh, ay)
Unable to get enough of the experience
We're wasting time
Wasting time without pursuing desires (repeated)
While we know what we want
Aware of what is wanted (repeated)
But it's impossible to try
Challenges in making an attempt (repeated)
'Till we're committing to us
Commitment needed for a relationship to thrive (repeated)
(I can't hide)
Unable to conceal emotions (repeated)
(I can't hide)
