[Verse 1]
Just stop your crying, it's a sign of the times
Welcome to the final show
Hope you're wearing your best clothes
You can't bribe the door on your way to the sky
You look pretty good down here
But you ain't really good

[Pre-Chorus]
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets? The bullets?
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets? The bullets?

[Chorus]
Just stop your crying, it's a sign of the times
We gotta get away from here
We gotta get away from here
Just stop your crying, it'll be alright
They told me that the end is near
We gotta get away from here

[Verse 2]
Just stop your crying, have the time of your life
Breaking through the atmosphere
And things are pretty good from here
Remember everything will be alright
We can meet again somewhere
Somewhere far away from here

[Pre-Chorus]
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets? The bullets?

[Chorus]
Just stop your crying, it's a sign of the times
We gotta get away from here
We gotta get away from here
Stop your crying, baby, it'll be alright
They told me that the end is near
We gotta get away from here

[Bridge]
We don't talk enough, we should open up
Before it's all too much
Will we ever learn? We've been here before
It's just what we know

[Outro]
Stop your crying, baby, it's a sign of the times
We gotta get away, we got to get away
We got to get away, we got to get away
We got to get away

Harry Styles

Harry Edward Styles (born February 1st, 1994) is a widely-recognized English singer, songwriter and up-and-coming actor. He rose to fame during his time with One Direction—a platinum-selling, world-renowned boy band. Since the band went on an indefinite hiatus in 2015, Styles has produced two chart-topping studio albums and launched his acting career. He is credited with writing music for Ariana Grande, the 2018 rom-com Love, Simon, Meghan Trainor, One Direction, himself and more.

Styles was born and raised in Redditch, Worcestershire with his sister, supported by their loving mother and step-father. Growing up, Styles always had a passion for singing; he would record covers on his karaoke machine as a kid and went on to be the lead singer of Manchester band White Eskimo. In 2010, 16-year-old Styles auditioned as a solo artist on The X Factor before judge Simon Cowell grouped him with four other boys to form English-Irish pop boy band, One Direction.

In April 2017, two years after One Direction announced their hiatus, Styles dropped his debut solo single “Sign Of The Times” which was greeted with enormous praise as the song landed the number one spot on the charts in over twenty countries. Influenced by rock bands such as Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac and The Rolling Stones, Harry Styles’s self-titled debut album immediately shot to the top of the charts upon its release in May 2017, landing the number one position in 84 different countries along with selling a historic, record-breaking 230,000 album units. He now holds the title for the biggest debut sales week for a British male musician in the United States.
