Lyrics [INTRO] [Tight syncopated percussion. Hi-hat ghost notes. Muted guitar scratches on the off-beats. Bass pops a playful but tense groove. The mood is celebratory on the surface but anxious underneath.] [VERSE 1] Everybody thinks I’m doing alright Got a little swagger when I walk at night Got my collar up and my shoes shining bright But nobody sees what happens when the lights go Down [Guitar adds clipped funk chords.] I keep dancing like my world’s on fire Keep smiling while I walk the wire Everybody singing in the choir But I’m one bad thought from letting go [PRE-CHORUS] I can feel it in my heartbeat Every time I hear your name Everybody wants the spotlight I just want to ease the pain [CHORUS] Hey! I’m dancing through a breakdown Spinning while I hit the ground Everybody loves me at the party Who’s gonna love me now? Hey! Got my hands up to the ceiling While my heart is sinking down Everybody loves me at the party Who’s gonna love me now? [POST-CHORUS] Whoa-oh-oh Who’s gonna love me now? Whoa-oh-oh Who’s gonna love me now? [VERSE 2] Got a table full of pretty friends Got another drink I shouldn’t spend Got enough charm to fake confidence For another hour or two Maybe if I move a little faster Maybe if I laugh a little harder Maybe if the band plays even louder I can disappear from the truth [PRE-CHORUS] But every beat keeps pulling Every memory returns The room keeps getting brighter While my insides slowly burn [CHORUS] Hey! I’m dancing through a breakdown Spinning while I hit the ground Everybody loves me at the party Who’s gonna love me now? Hey! Got my hands up to the ceiling While my heart is sinking down Everybody loves me at the party Who’s gonna love me now? [BRIDGE] Maybe all the confetti Is just camouflage Maybe all the applause Is covering scars Maybe everybody sees the fireworks But nobody sees the lie That plunged a dagger in my heart [FINAL CHORUS] Hey! I’m dancing through a breakdown Spinning while I hit the ground Everybody loves me at the party Who’s gonna love me now? Hey! Got my hands up to the ceiling While my heart is sinking down Everybody loves me at the party Who’s gonna love me now? [OUTRO] Everybody loves me at the party… Who’s gonna love me now?
