I don't want to buy
What they're selling these days
Saying feeling
And falling is all a mistake no, no
And why does everybody look at young hearts
Feeling love
Like it's just a matter of time
Before they break, no, no

They started saying
When you can't hide, run
When you can't run, hide
Started thinking love's a loaded gun
Nobody wants to fight
And when did we all stop thinking that the world
Stops spinning in a kiss goodnight?
And when did our heartbeat beating too fast
Stop meaning it was worth the while?

I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run
I don't wanna hide

Traded out our eyes
To light a screen
Traded out holding hands
To holding back everything
(no, no, oh)
And words got shorter
Quiet got longer
And all of a sudden love
Started looking like a memory
(No, no, no)

They started saying
If you can't hide, run
If you can't run, hide
Started thinking love's a loaded gun
Nobody wants to fight
And when did we all start thinking of the world
Stop spinning in a kiss goodnight?
And when did our heartbeat beating too fast
Start meaning it was worth the while?

I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run
I don't wanna hide, no

They started saying
When you can't hide, run
When you can't run, hide
But love's gonna be a loaded gun
Oh a losing fight
And when did we all start thinking of the world
Stop spinning in a kiss goodnight?
And when did our heartbeat beating too fast
Start meaning it was worth the while?

I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run
I don't wanna hide

And I don't wanna run
I don't wanna hide
And I don't wanna run
I don't wanna hide
