I was burning up to fall apart
And the walls fall down around my heart
Now I'm feeling sick
It's always something lately

I was broken down but still looked good
I was kissing clocks, you knew I would
Now I'm feeling scared
Someone say that they miss this

The night is young
We wait for love
Upside down we dream
At home we sleep
And wait to leave
Upside down we dream
And we are all brighter than stars back home

Don't leave so fast
Don't leave so fast

I was in the sun but feeling cold
I was grabbing tight but lost a hold
Now who'd wanna stay?
While we're all here changing

I was ripped apart but held by glue
I was full of lies but spoke the truth
Now I've lost myself
Oh I forgot how this felt

The night is young
We wait for love
Upside down we dream
At home we sleep
And wait to leave
Upside down we dream
And we are all brighter than stars back home

Don't leave so fast
Don't leave so fast

The night is young
We wait for love
Upside down we dream
At home we sleep
And wait to leave
Upside down we dream
And we are all brighter than stars back home

Don't leave so fast
Don't leave so fast

    General Comment:I think it's about a person who had someone break their heart and afraid it will happen again.

    But he met someone else [Hayley] who he really likes, and decides to take the chance.

    Something like that!

    General Comment:I just heard this on idobi.. thought it was Hayley. Anyway, I think 'kissing clocks' has something to do with being too attached to the past.

    General Comment:I love Haley's voice in this song! I like hers and Pat's voices together, and it just adds a little something extra. I don't think she ruins it at all.
