Lyrics[]
[Verse 1: Luke, Calum & Michael]
Even when the sky is falling down
Even when the earth is crumblin' around my feet
Even when we try to say goodbye
And you can cut the tension with a knife in here
[Pre-Chorus: Calum & Michael]
'Cause I know what will happen
If we get through this
[Chorus: All]
And if the earth ends up crumbling down to its knees, then, baby
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
And if the skyscrapers tumble down and crash around, then, baby
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
[Verse 2: Calum & All]
'Cause I feel so damn lost
And it comes with a cost of being alone
Everything is falling down, we're sufferin'
Helpless thoughts and out we sing, prayers go to the sky
[Chorus: All & Ashton]
And if the earth ends up crumbling down to its knees, then, baby
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
(Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get out)
And if the skyscrapers tumble down and crash around, then, baby
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
[Bridge: All & Calum]
And if we fall, it's not your fault
Shadows covering our selfish foes
And as our love can go out on a high note
[Breakdown: Luke]
Even when the sky is falling down
Even when the earth is crumblin' around my feet
Around my feet
[Chorus: All & Ashton]
And if the earth ends up crumbling down to its knees, then, baby
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
(Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get out)
And if the skyscrapers tumble down and crash around, then, baby
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
[Outro: All, Luke & Ashton]
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
We just gotta get out, we just gotta get out
