  • Slow down, the world isn't watching us break down
    It's safe to say we are alone now, we're alone now
    Not a whisper, the only noise is the receiver
    I'm counting the seconds until you break the silence
    So please just break the silence

    The whispers turn to shouting
    The shouting turns to tears
    Your tears turn into laughter
    And it takes away our fears

    So you see, this world doesn't matter to me
    I'll give up all I had just to breathe
    The same air as you till the day that I die
    I can't take my eyes off of you

    And I'm longing, for words to describe how I'm feeling
    I'm feeling inspired
    My world just flip turned upside down
    It turns around, saw that's that sound
    It's my heart beat, it's getting much louder
    My heart beat, is louder than ever
    I'm feeling alive, I'm feeling alive

    The whispers turn to shouting
    The shouting turns to tears
    Your tears turn into laughter
    And it takes away our fears

    So you see, this world doesn't matter to me
    I'll give up all I had just to breathe
    The same air as you till the day that I die
    I can't take my eyes off of you

    I'm finally waking up, a twist in my story
    It's time I open up, and let your love right through me
    I'm finally waking up, a twist in my story
    It's time I open up, and let your love right through me
    That's what you get
    When you see your life in someone else's eyes
    That's what you get, that's what you get

    So you see, this world doesn't matter to me
    I'll give up all I had just to breathe
    The same air as you till the day that I die
    I can't take my eyes off of you
    So you see this world doesn't matter to me
    I'll give up all I had just to breathe
    The same air as you till the day that I die
    I can't take my eyes off of you Writer/s: JOHN VESELY
