[Verse 1]
From the get go I knew this was hard to hold,
Like a crash the whole thing spun out of control.
Oh, on a wire, we were dancing,
Two kids, no consequences.
Pull a trigger, without thinking,
There's only one way down this road!

[Chorus]
It was like a time bomb, set in a motion,
We knew that we were destined to explode.
And if I had to pull you out of the wreckage,
You know I'm never gonna let you go.
We're like a time bomb!
Gonna lose it, let's defuse it,
Baby we're like a time bomb!
But I need it,
Wouldn't have it any other way.

[Verse 2]
Well there's no way out of this so let's stay in,
Every storm that comes, all soul comes to an end.
Oh, resistance is useless,
Just two kids stupid and fearless.
Like a bullet, shooting love sick,
There's only one way down this road!

[Chorus]
It was like a time bomb, set in a motion,
We knew that we were destined to explode.
And if I had to pull you out of the wreckage,
You know I'm never gonna let you go.
We're like a time bomb!
Gonna lose it, let's defuse it,
Baby we're like a time bomb!
But I need it,
Wouldn't have it any other way.

[Bridge]
Got my heart in your hands, like a time bomb tickin',
It goes off, we start again, when it breaks, we fix it.
Got your heart in my hands, like a time bomb tickin',
We should know
Better, but we won't let go.

[Outro]
It was like a time bomb, set in a motion,
We knew that we were destined to explode (destined to explode).
And if I had to pull you out of the wreckage,
You know I'm never gonna let you go (never gonna let you go).
We're like a time bomb!
Gonna lose it, let's defuse it,
Baby we're like a time bomb!
But I need it,
Wouldn't have it any other way.
