Now I'd hate to tell the truth, cause that just isn't me
But the smoke fills my lungs from the lies and deceit
I'm choking on the fumes, it's getting harder to breathe
The flames dance around, copying you and me
We're a dangerous pair, can't safely assume
That I'll be here tomorrow, cause tomorrow is doomed
There only is now, only me and you
Slow dancing in a room that's burning us two
I'm hating on fate, cause it's gotta be cruel
Calculating the odds of ending right next to you
You'll never admit it, me and you? We're alike
But double rhyming one word, just sounds too alike
This irrational passion is causing us to collide
It's crashing not lasting, but I cannot deny
That you can make me laugh, but I can only make you cry
And a letdown's what I'm building on these terrible lies
We'd like to-say that we're platonic, drama crap is just ironic, change the topic don't talk about it
Spinning faster supersonic
Woah, I know, we really slow it down
But lately I've been tryin and I really don't know how
Too scared to take the first step, too scared to talk it out
Too scared to voice belief, too scared to voice the doubts
Too scared to run away cause that would mean this is real
So we'll just keep on dancing 'fore the burns ever heal
Now I'd hate to tell the truth, cause that just isn't me
But the smoke fills my lungs from the lies and deceit
I'm choking on the fumes, it's getting harder to breathe
The flames dance around, copying you and me
We're a dangerous pair, can't safely assume
That I'll be here tomorrow, cause tomorrow is doomed
There only is now, only me and you
Slow dancing in a room that's burning us two
Check us out, yo we're cooler than ice
We're polite to each other and we're doin alright
The way that we're acting you'd never know we're unusual
Cause we're hiding this fire I see it burning so beautiful
You're A habit I can't break, a moment that I can't wait
We're going back and forth in a tragedy we've made
I hate, the lies, the faces we fake
I can't escape the fate that takes and takes
I'd like to think I play it off really chill
But I can't pretend cause I'm really real
But it's what I feel I feel, what life deals it deals
It's nonstop, my heart drops, attacking my Achilles' heel
Fork in the road but I don't know my way
Like you too much to go but not enough to stay
You said that you're gone, but I hope you'll be back
We'll finish what we started till our hearts are burned black
Now I'd hate to tell the truth, cause that just isn't me
But the smoke fills my lungs from the lies and deceit
I'm choking on the fumes, it's getting harder to breathe
The flames dance around, copying you and me
We're a dangerous pair, can't safely assume
That I'll be here tomorrow, cause tomorrow is doomed
There only is now, only me and you
Slow dancing in a room that's burning us two
