Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We were barely invited to this party,
So we stole their drinks and ran like hell.
Cut through backyards, tore my sleeve on a fence,
Didn’t stop ‘til my lungs were burning.
Down the alley, past the diner lot,
We climbed the church roof just to watch the city breathe.
You told me, "Tonight could last forever,"
I said, "Then let’s never come down."
But we knew, the world was about to end.
Oh, don’t slow down now, the countdown’s begun..
[Pre-Chorus]
Ten, nine, eight—honey, hold my gun!
Seven, six, five—doesn’t matter where we land!
Four, three, two—don’t you wanna see the end hand in hand?!
[Chorus]
Clock’s run out, baby, I’m in love with you.
There’s nowhere in this world I’d rather be
Than right here next to you.
We were up ‘til dawn, I swore I saw the stars explode.
I’ll never get that feeling again.
Clock’s run out, baby, I’m in love with you.
There’s nowhere in this world I’d rather be
Than right here next to you.
We were up ‘til dawn, I swore I saw the stars explode.
I’ll never get that feeling again.
[Verse 2]
We ran ‘til our legs gave out,
Fell flat in the middle of the road.
The asphalt was hot, or maybe it was me,
My heartbeat pounding through the pavement.
I traced your name in the dust on a car,
You wiped it clean with the sleeve of your coat.
Said, "This town will forget us by morning,"
I said, "Then let’s make it burn."
[Bridge]
Do you hear that?
The sound of the world caving in?
Buildings fall like dominoes, but no one’s left to scream.
The sky is folding in half,
Streetlights flicker like funeral candles.
Somewhere, a siren wails—
But I can’t hear a thing.
When the end takes us, will you hold my hand?
Or will you let go? Cause the countdown’s begun..
[Pre-Chorus]
Ten, nine, eight—honey, hold my gun!
Seven, six, five—doesn’t matter where we land!
Four, three, two—don’t you wanna see the end hand in hand?!
[Chorus]
Clock’s run out, baby, I’m in love with you.
There’s nowhere in this world I’d rather be
Than right here next to you.
We were up ‘til dawn, I swore I saw the stars explode.
I’ll never get that feeling again.
Clock’s run out, baby, I’m in love with you.
There’s nowhere in this world I’d rather be
Than right here next to you.
We were up ‘til dawn, I swore I saw the stars explode.
I’ll never get that feeling again.
We were barely invited to this party,
So we stole their drinks and ran like hell.
Cut through backyards, tore my sleeve on a fence,
Didn’t stop ‘til my lungs were burning.
Down the alley, past the diner lot,
We climbed the church roof just to watch the city breathe.

Clock’s run out, baby, I’m in love with you.
