Slow Grenade

Help me, my God, this got messy

′Least I got the best seat

'Cause we put on one hell of a showWaiting, I just keep on waiting

For the final curtain

′Cause I just can't let go of your love

Ooh

You say my name like you know my dark side, ooh

Can't beat the taste of the tears that I′ll cry, ooh

Slow grenade is blowing up my mistakes

So, why don′t I, why don't I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It′s like a part of me must want it

That's why I′m not running from it

Can't escape this

Blowing up in my face

So, why can′t I, why can't I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It's like a part of me must love it

That′s why I′m not running from it

Crazy, late nights in the city

Drink until you hate me

Then say that I should just let you go (Just let you go)

But hold on, why do we still hold on?

Think that we should move on

But we're too scared of being alone (Being alone)

Ooh

You say my name like you know my dark side, ooh (Oh)

Can′t beat the taste of the tears that I'll cry, ooh

Slow grenade is blowing up my mistakes

So why don′t I, why don't I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It′s like a part of me must want it

That's why I'm not running from it

Can′t escape this

Blowing up in my face

So, why can′t I, why can't I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It′s like a part of me must love it

That's why I′m not running from it

Ah-ooh, ah-ooh

Why can't I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It′s like a part of me must love it

That's why I'm not running from it

Help me, my God, this got messy

′Least I got the best seat

′Cause we put on one hell of a show, woah, yeah

Oh, slow grenade is blowing up my mistakes

So, why don't I, why don′t I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It's like a part of me must want it

That′s why I'm not running from it

Can′t escape this

Blowing up in my face

So why can't I, why can't I stop it? (Hey)

Still got time for me to stop it (Hey)

It′s like a part of me must love it

That′s why I'm not running from it

Ah-ooh, ah-ooh (Oh)

Why can′t I stop it?

Still got time for me to stop it

It's like a part of me must love it

That′s why I'm not running from it
