When people can't stop
there is tention in the air
always buzzing by
never a blank stare
when people can't stop

no sympathy
when people can't stop
they hurt who they love.
when people don't stop
they don't stop to think
when people don't stop
they think they are right
when people fight
they can't stop
before the other
admitting defeat
Isn't so easy
when you can't stop
you hurt the ones you love.
