Slow Dancing in a Burning Room

[Verse 1]

It's not a silly little moment

It's not the storm before the calm

This is the deep and dying breath of

This love that we've been workin' on

Can't seem to hold you like I want to

So I can feel you in my arms

Nobody's gonna come and save you

We've pulled too many false alarms

[Chorus]

We're going down, and you can see it too

Yeah, we're going down and you know that we're doomed

My dear, we're slow dancin' in a burnin' room

[Verse 2]

I was the one you always dreamed of

You were the one I tried to draw

How dare you say there's nothing to me?

Baby, you're the only light I ever saw

I'll make the most of all the sadness

You'll be a bitch because you can

You try to hit me just to hurt me

So you leave me feelin' dirty

'Cause you can't understand

[Chorus]

That we're going down, and you can see it too

Yeah, we're going down and you know that we're doomed

My dear, we're slow dancin' in a burnin' room

[Bridge]

Go cry about it, why don't you?

Go cry about it, why don't you?

Go cry about it, why don't you?

My dear, we're slow dancin' in a burnin' room

[Outro]

Don't you think we oughta know by now?

Don't you think we should'a learned somehow?

Don't you think we oughta know by now?

Don't you think we should'a learned somehow?

Don't you think we oughta know by now?

Don't you think we should'a learned somehow?

Well, my dear, we're slow dancin' in a burnin' room
