Dance Dance
Fall Out Boy Lyrics

She says she's no good with words, but I'm worse
My partner is not skillful with words, but I am even less so

Barely stuttered out a joke of a romantic stuck to my tongue
I struggled to speak a romantic phrase and could only spit out a silly joke

Weighed down with words too overdramatic
My language is too dramatic and heavy, burdening the conversation

Tonight it's it can't get much worse Versus no one should ever feel like
Things cannot get worse tonight, but no one should feel like this

I'm two quarters and a heart down And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds These words are all I have so I write them So you need them just to get by
I feel down and broke, but I refuse to forget the sound of my lover's voice. These words are my only way of expressing myself, and you rely on them to cope

Dance, dance We're falling apart to halftime Dance, dance And these are the lives you love to lead Dance, this is the way they'd love If they knew how misery loved me
Let's dance together even though we feel broken and stuck in life's slow rhythm. Let's embrace our flawed existence and enjoy the misery that comes with it

You always fold just before you're found out Drink up it's last call last resort But only the first mistake and I
You always confess before you're caught, and now we're left with no other option but to drink and hope for the best. But I've only made one mistake

Why don't you show me a little bit of spine You've been saving for his mattress, love?
Why don't you stand up for yourself and show some backbone instead of saving it for your other lover's bed?

I only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me
I only seek comfort through physical intimacy with you

Dance, dance We're falling apart to halftime Dance, dance And these are the lives you love to lead Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love) Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love) Dance this is the way they'd love if they knew how misery loved me
Let's dance together even though life is breaking us apart. We will dance to our own tune, the one that only we understand, and they would love it if they knew how we survive through misery

Dance, dance Dance, dance Dance, dance Dance, dance
Let's keep dancing, no matter how hard things get
