  • Here's another pity
    And there's another chance
    Try to learn a lesson but you can't
    If we can burn a city
    In futures and in past
    Without a change, our lives will never last
    'Cause we're going fast

    You can sit beside me when the world comes down
    If it doesn't matter, then just turn around
    We don't need our bags and we can just leave town
    You can sit beside me when the world comes down

    What can we do better
    When will we know how?
    A man says from a sidewalk to a crowd
    If we can change the weather
    If you wanted to yourself
    If you can't
    I guess we all need help, yeah
    I need help

    You can sit beside me when the world comes down
    If it doesn't matter, then just turn around
    We don't need our bags and we can just leave town
    You can sit beside me when the world comes down

    We say
    Yeah, we do
    All the lies, the truth
    And all I need is next to me

    Yeah
    We're going fast

    You can sit beside me when the world comes down
    If it doesn't matter, then just turn around
    You be the queen and I'll be your clown
    You can sit beside me when the world comes down

    You can sit beside me when the world comes
    You can sit beside me when the world comes down Writer/s: Nick Don Wheeler, Tyson V Ritter
