[Verse 1] She was dancing, she was smiling Roses blooming in her cheeks In a quiet kind of litany She accepted some defeat And then she twirled into the arms Of disgrace, and then repelled Now, she's fallen to her knees But you couldn't ever tell [Pre-Chorus] And then, she asked me how we got here I told her, "I don't know!" And if you keep on asking I'll just keep saying so This isn't what I wanted It isn't what you need But let them keep on talking Just calm yourself and breathe [Chorus] Don't you pay them any mind Don't you pay them any mind You know this happens every time Now, don't you pay them any mind [Verse 2] Let it burn, as if we'd bothered We'll make sound based on their eyes As she closes, just to open There's some sirens wailing by And as she's off to tell her secret To her friends somewhere in town And her friend just takes a moment And that's why I'm not around Darling, this is something I should have told you long ago I just want you to feel safe I just want to make you glow But, how you glowed when we were young There was nothing on our minds When you jump, for your love Baby, you're nothing long of time [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] Why did we have to, go further every time? Some days you hear it (don't listen, I'll carry you) Some days you don't (to the universe we'll never go) Sometimes you feel it (it's not worth it, help me) Sometimes you won't Just calm yourself, and pay [Chorus] (x2)
