Lyrics

Stop

[Verse: Danielle]

I know you and me

Everything was supposed to be

But I don't really want to

I don't really understand how that has to be

I cannot breathe

I cannot breathe

It's not, it's not that easy

[Verse: Alana]

I know that you want this to keep up, going on

But I don't really want to

You just need to understand that this is all wrong

Why can't you see?

Why can't you please just stop?

Just stay away from me

[Chorus]

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

(Stop, stop)

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

(Stop, Stop)

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

(Stop, Stop)

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

[Bridge]

(La-da-da-da-da-da)

Cause you have some place to go

(La-da-da-da) (La-da-da-da-da-da)

And you have some place to show

(La-da-da-da) (La-da-da-da-da-da)

And I have some place to go

(La-da-da-da) (La-da-da-da-da-da)

And you have some place to show

(La-da-da-da)

[Verse: Este]

Why can't things just stay, so they'll always be the same

Cause I don't really want to

I don't really understand why things have to change

Why can't you see?

Why can't you please just stop?

Stop suffocating me

[Verse: Danielle]

I know that you want this to keep up going on

But I can't decide

I cannot decide

I cannot decide

I cannot breathe

I cannot breathe

Just stop, just stay away from me

[Chorus]

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

(Stop, stop)

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

(Stop, Stop)

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

(Stop, Stop)

I came to say

(Stop)

I came to say

[Bridge]

(La-da-da-da-da-da)

That you have some place to go

(La-da-da-da) (La-da-da-da-da-da)

And I had some place to show

(La-da-da-da) (La-da-da-da-da-da)

And I have some place to go

(La-da-da-da) (La-da-da-da-da-da)

And you had some place to show

(La-da-da-da)

(La-da-da-da-da-da)(La-da-da-da)

(La-da-da-da-da-da)(La-da-da-da)

(La-da-da-da-da-da)(La-da-da-da)

(La-da-da-da-da-da)(La-da-da-da)
