Slow Grenade

Lyrics

Help me, my God, this got messy
 'Least I got the best seat
 'Cause we put on one hell of a show
 Waiting, 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
 
 Help me, my God, this got messy
 'Least I got the best seat
 'Cause we put on one hell of a show
 Waiting, 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

 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
