Mindless Moves
We are in a room full of desperation, you and I
Let’s keep dancing to make the lonesome time go by
I have to trust you, so keep me distracted
Help me obliterate the memory of what you said, and how you acted
The way we move, manifested by how wretched we feel over a certain disadvantage
He’s dancing all over the heart he broke, but she will find a way to manage
In this moment I love and hate you at the same time
Is wanting to hurt someone while dancing considered a crime?
After we dance you ask me to stay
But I need to get home to my parents before the start of a new day
Leaving the dance floor in a hurry
The hushed and uneasy car ride home is blurry
The strings drag behind me
Ignoring my feelings that are deeper than the sea
Our show is over so please do not return
So that I can let the memory of you crash and burn
