Before We Stopped To Think

There are black pots hangin’ round the sink
Before we stop to think
We’re not the ones who need a drink
Before we stop to think

And we stopped to catch our breath
And we stopped fearing our death
That’s when we died
And we stopped to tear apart the clock from our beating heart

We would write our songs slow
And we tried to speed them up
We would write our songs soft
And we’d try to make them tough

And we stopped to catch our breath
And we stopped fearing our death
That’s when we died
And we stopped to tear apart the clock from our beating heart

We finished more than we could start
And we're smarter than you'd ever think
Now I think I need a drink
Pause for a cause I'd never need

And we stopped to catch our breath
And we stopped fearing our death
That’s when we died
And we stopped to tear apart the clock from our beating heart
