Dance,

Dance like the night isn't ending

Like it isn't getting lighter outside cuz we've been at it so long

Dance.

Like the earth isn't moving slower

1.8 milliseconds per century

Like the tide isn't getting rougher

Like the sun isn't slowly going out.

Like the plates aren't pulling apart.

Like we aren't pulling apart.

I wanted to go home but why do I feel better in your

Arms

Are like daggers

Hammering me down

You tell me stop being like this so

Stressed

So

You tell me,

Smoke a joint

Drink a bit

Stop thinking

Dance a bit

Like the world isn't getting set on fire.
