Verse 1 Ceiling cracks in fluorescent lines Static chewing through my spine Room too loud, heart too thin Every thought just caves me in Shoes on tile, neon glare Everybody breathing air Like it doesn’t weigh a ton Like they’re not about to run ⸻ Pre-Chorus Don’t say it Don’t name it If you do it might stay Don’t face it Don’t break it Just move anyway ⸻ Chorus Shut up and dance Before it catches you Shut up and dance Like there’s nothing left to prove Hands in the air Eyes closed tight If the world’s gonna end Let it end in the light Shut up and dance ⸻ Verse 2 Mirror shakes but doesn’t fall I don’t recognize that call Skin too loud, bones too bright Everything electric white Laugh too sharp, grin too wide Every feeling amplified If I stop I might collapse So I loop it, over, relapse ⸻ Pre-Chorus Don’t say it Don’t name it If you do it might stay Don’t face it Don’t break it Just move anyway ⸻ Chorus Shut up and dance Before it catches you Shut up and dance Like there’s nothing left to prove Hands in the air Eyes closed tight If the world’s gonna end Let it end in the light Shut up and dance ⸻ Bridge (Minimal, Droney, Almost Empty) One more loop One more spin One more second Don’t give in I’m still in it…. I’m still with it.. We’re still winning…. We’re still moving… (Guitar drone building…) ⸻ Final Chorus (Heroic Lift) Shut up and dance Before it swallows you Shut up and dance Like you know what to do Hands in the air Fear in your chest If the dark wants in Let it fight the rest Shut up and dance (Extended droney guitar outro — hook repeating, drums pounding)
