[Intro] (laptop hum, rain, a slow drum machine) [Verse 1: Male] The screen went dark at midnight First time in a year I closed it and I turned around And you were standing here Every girl you cleared away Every door you shut I should be long gone by now But I'm not [Verse 2: Female] I won't say I'm sorry You'd know that it's a lie I'd burn it all down twice again To have you look this time Your friends are gone, the sofa's cold The music's playing low You can hate me in the morning Just don't go [Chorus: Both] So take the dance It was always ours Through the wreckage and the blue light And the scratched-out stars No coincidence Nothing left to chance If it's love or if it's war Take the dance [Bridge: Male] (quiet, reverb) You wrote every ending I just read the lines [Female] Then write the next one with me [Both] One last time [Final Chorus: Both] So take the dance It was always ours Through the wreckage and the blue light And the scratched-out stars No coincidence Nothing left to chance If it's love or if it's war Take the dance [Outro: Both] Take the dance (theremin fades into rain)
