Make It Stop

Don't meet your heroes
If you do, they'll only let you down
Just another zero
Another fortunate face in the crowd

I keep looking for the common thread
A needle in the eye of a hurricane
I keep waiting for the sun to set
Lemons in the lemonade

The universe won't wait for
Broken hearts and shooting stars
And I keep running in circles
And I can't make it stop
Oh, life gets heavy
When you're speeding in a car
And the brakes cut out
I keep running in circles
And I can't make it stop
Make it stop

Time in a bottle
Watch it go like a grain of sand
Life in a bubble
Watch it float right through your hands

I keep looking back on brighter days
Memory bought by a photograph
Who do I become when my youth fades away?
And I just wanna go home again

The universe won't wait for
Broken hearts and shooting stars
And I keep running in circles
And I can't make it stop
Oh, life gets heavy
When you're speeding in a car
And the brakes cut out
I keep running in circles
And I can't make it stop
Make it stop

Make the world stop turning
Make the fire stop burning
Just when you thought you had enough
You're back at the beginning of it

Make the world stop turning
Make the money stop adding up
I keep running in circles
And I can't make it stop

Make the world stop turning
Make the fire stop burning
Just when you thought you had enough
You're back at the beginning of it

Make the world stop turning
Make the money stop adding up
I keep running in circles
And I can't make it stop
