Stop
Otam Lyrics

Stop the world because I wanna get off with you
I want to escape from the rest of the world and remain with you only

With the exception of you I dislike everyone in the room
I have no interest in anyone else in this room except you

Jealousy in technicolor
My jealousy is intense and colorful

Love by numbers
Our love is calculated and predictable

Streetlight amber wonderlust
The streetlights create an amber glow that fuels our wanderlust

And suddenly the sky is a scissor
The sky seems to cut me off from everyone and everything else

Your kiss it could put creases in the road
Your kisses could move mountains and leave a lasting impact

And those other girls are just post mix lemonade
Other girls are bland and unimportant compared to you

Be cruel to me because I'm a fool for you
Treat me unkindly if it makes you happy, I will still love you

I poured my aching heart into a pop song
I put all my pain and emotion into a song that couldn't capture it all

I couldn't get the hang of poetry
I couldn't express my feelings in verse

You've got that face that just says baby I was made to break your heart
Your face seems like it was made to break hearts, including mine

I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had but you're always busy being make believe
I've tried to ask you this in my dreams, but you're always too busy in my fantasies

Do you look into a mirror to remind yourself you're there or have somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered
Do you need to look into a mirror to know that you exist or have you already received goodnight kisses from someone?

When I'm not being honest I'll pretend that you were just some lover
When I'm not truthful, I pretend that you're just a casual lover to lessen the pain

I can't think of anything to dream about
I have no dreams or fantasies that come to mind without you in them

Make a wish that weighs a tonne
Make a wish that is heavy and burdensome to carry out

And the sky looks sticky
The sky seems dense and unyielding

Somebody told the stars your not coming out tonight and so they found a place to hide
Someone has told the stars that you won't show up tonight, so they went into hiding

I saw you driving your Prius and even that was monstercoachesque
Even your small Prius seemed monstrous and impressive to me

Fools on parade
We are fools on display

She thinks she's the one but she's just one in 24
She believes she's the one, but she's just one of many

He longs for you to long for him once more just once more
He wants you to love him again, just one more time

You've never met before but still she greets you like a long lost rock and roll
Even though you've never met before, she greets you like an old friend from the rock and roll era

When you look at me like that my darling what did you expect
When you give me that look, what were you expecting me to do?

I'd probably still adore you with your hands around my neck or I did last time I checked
I would still love you even if you were trying to choke me, or at least that's what I thought before

Not shy of a spark the knife twists at the thought that I might fall short of the mark
I'm not afraid to try new things, but the thought of failing makes me feel sick

Do me a favour and tell me to go away
Please do me a favor and tell me to leave

The day after you stole my heart everything I touched told me it would be better shared with you
The day after you captured my heart, I felt like everything I came into contact with would be improved by sharing it with you

And she tried so hard to steer away from the meeting place but her heart had led her there
She tried to avoid the place where she would meet him, but her heart guided her to that spot

She clings to his consciousness wherever he lays
She remains in his thoughts wherever he goes

I'm sorry i met you darling I'm sorry i left you
I regret meeting you and also leaving you

She's waiting in his dreams to drag him back to the meeting place
She awaits him in his dreams to return to the location where they first met

He's crying out from the meeting place he stranded himself there
He cries out from the location where they first met because he feels stranded there

The nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day
The nights are primarily used to say things that can't be spoken during the day

Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new
I am so invested in you, I don't have room in my heart for anyone else

Been wondering if your hearts still open and if so I wanna know what time it shuts
I have been contemplating if your heart is still open to me, and if so, what the cutoff time is

It's just I'm constantly on the cusp of trying to kiss you
I am always on the verge of wanting to kiss you

And I elongated my lift home yeah I let him go the long way around I smelt your scent on the seat belt and kept my shortcuts to myself
I made my ride home longer, letting the driver take the scenic route because I caught a whiff of your scent on the seat belt and wanted to keep my shortcuts a secret

I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
I am starting to think that you were just a figment of my imagination

Remember cuddles in the kitchen yeah to get things off the ground. And it was up up and away oh but it's right hard to remember that on a day like today when your all argumentative and you've got the face on
Remember when we had intimate moments in the kitchen? We started off strong, but now when we are fighting, it's hard to remember that loving feeling

And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate that reoccurs oh when you say I don't care but ofc I do yeah I clearly do
I don't have the energy to keep having the same argument where you accuse me of not caring when I clearly do

He's got the feeling again this time on the airplane
He's experiencing this familiar feeling again, this time on the airplane

The thought of it makes you feel a bit ill
Just the thought of it makes you feel a bit queasy

Is wanting us to be around at 3
You want us to be together at 3

I said I wasn't sad to see her go Yeah but I'm only pretending you know
I said I wasn't saddened by her departure, but I was just pretending
