Lyrics
Heavy Dancing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What if my friends weren’t really friends?
What if a smile was a charade?
What if I saw just an other face?
What if a look was just a gaze?
Save me
I couldn’t keep it at bay
Soothe me
I went and threw my hopes away
No purpose, no meaning
No love, but still a heart left beating
Young beauty, swallow me whole
'Cause I know you’ve got soul
Save me
I couldn’t keep it at bay
Soothe me
I went and threw my hopes away
Sorrow comes, when sorrow calls
And when she does, my whole world falls
Misery, madness, I’m starting to fight it
But what if our hopes were just really misguided
When I’m not so sure I can untie this knot, this heavy dancing is all I’ve got
