Yeah I saw you... Wearing time like it don’t tick Standing there like the fire ain’t lit Corner queen with a plastic grin Bottle sweatin’ like original sin Thoughts on loop like rental tape My head said “run,” my feet said “wait” You’re a disco ghost with cigarette skin And I swear I heard you think: “Let’s begin…” I got so hypnotized By the thought of something I never knew That you were just a surprise And now you're leavin' with a ballyhoo And the band plays on The singer sang my song And the truth gets gone And the lights get strong And I thought I could fly On the wings of something I never knew And the night would not die And the sun She cried in the mornin' dew And the band plays on The singer sang my song And the truth gets gone And the lights get strong And now my head gets loud With the sound of something I never knew And now I'm lost in a crowd In a world of people just like you Peel me off the vinyl floor I’ve been dancin’ with the EXIT door Smoke in my lungs, glitch in my grin Heart got hacked by the shape you’re in Spin me like your second thought Static in my brain from the heat you brought I ain’t smooth, I ain’t sane But I bite like a storm through a windowpane Yeah! Velvet teeth in a velvet room Let’s break this night like a cheap perfume I came to blur, you came to bend So say my name with no intent And the band plays on The singer sang my song And the truth gets gone And the lights get strong And the band plays on The singer sang my song And the truth gets gone And the lights get strong
