"Stop"
(Paul Doucette / Rob Thomas)

Yes it's true that I believe
I'm weaker than I used to be
I wear my heart out on my sleeve
And I forget the rest of me

Yes there's times I've been afraid
And there's no harm in that I pray
'Cuz I'm more frightened everyday
Someone will take the hope I have away

[Pre-Chorus:]
But you gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get get off sometimes I know
But you gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get get off sometimes I know

All the times I've given in
(One by one by)
You fit me like a second skin
(One by one by)
And one by one I will begin
To wear you on the days I'm feeling thin

[Pre-Chorus:]
But you gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get get off sometimes I know
But you gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get off sometimes
You gotta give up
To get get off sometimes I know

[Chorus:]
You'd better stop, stop, stop
Using me up
You'd better stop
'Cuz I've had enough
And I'm ready to forget the reasons
That keep me here

[Bridge:]
Oooooo walk
In the rain
You will even if you're never gonna change
Good God, need a little love while
You find what you think you're gonna be, child

[Chorus:]
Yeah you'd better stop, stop, stop
Using me up
You'd better stop
'Cuz I've had enough
And I'm ready to forget the reasons
(Oh the reasons)
That keep me here
