You've got me stuck on repeat
And I just can't seem to break free
You've got me stuck on repeat
I can only move to the beat

And I don't remember how it started
And I don't know how to stop
But every time I reach the bottom
Something pulls me right back to the top 'cause

Every time I try, every time I try
Every time I try to break free
Then something comes along, something comes along
Something comes along to intervene

My heart's skipping, skipping
And I don't know why, I know every part
But every time I try, every time I try
Something comes and pulls me back to the start

You've got me stuck on repeat
And I just can't seem to break free
You've got me stuck on repeat
I can only move to the beat

And I don't remember how it started
And I don't know how to stop
But every time I reach the bottom
Something pulls me right back to the top 'cause

Every time I try, every time I try
Every time I try to break free
Then something comes along, something comes along
Something comes along to intervene

My heart's skipping, skipping
And I don't know why, I know every part
But every time I try, every time I try
Something comes and pulls me back to the start

And it's you who makes me move to the beat
And it's you that's got me stuck on repeat

Every time I try, every time I try
Every time I try to break free
Then something comes along, something comes along
Something comes along to intervene

My heart's skipping, skipping
And I don't know why, I know every part
But every time I try, every time I try
Something comes and pulls me back to the start

You've got me stuck
