Lyrics
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 working 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 pulled too many false alarms
We're going down
And you can see it, too
We're going down
And you know that we're doomed
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room
I was the one you always dreamed of
You were the one I tried to draw
How dare you say it'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
Oh, you'll try to hit me just hurt me
So you leave me feeling dirty
'Cause you can't understand
We're going down
And you can see it, too
We're going down
Oh, and you know that we're doomed
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room
Go cry about it, why don't you?
Go cry about it, why don't you?
Oh, go cry about it, go cry about it
Oh, my dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room, yeah
Oh, in a burning room
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we should have learned somehow?
Don't you think we oughta know by now?
Don't you think we oughta learned somehow?
Don't you think we oughta
Don't you think we oughta, don't you think we oughta know...
