She says she's no good with words but I'm worse

Barely stuttered out "A joke of a romantic", or just stuck to my tongue

Weighed down with words too over-dramatic

Tonight it's "It can't get much worse"

Vs. "No one should ever feel like..."

I'm two quarters and a heart down

And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds

These words are all I have so I'll write them

So you need them just to get by

Dance, dance

We're falling apart to half time

Dance, dance

And these are the lives you'd love to lead

Dance, this is the way they'd love

If they knew how misery loved me

You always fold just before you're found out

Drink up it's last call,

Last resort

But only the first mistake

I'm two quarters and a heart down

And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds

These words are all I have so I'll write them

So you need them just to get by

Why don't you show me a little bit of spine

You've been saving for his mattress, love

Dance, dance

We're falling apart to half time

Dance, dance

And these are the lives you'd love to lead

Dance, this is the way they'd love

If they knew how misery loved me

Why don't you show me a little bit of spine

You've been saving for his mattress (mattress, mattress)

I only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me

Dance, dance

We're falling apart to half time

Dance, dance

And these are the lives you'd love to lead

Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)

Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)

Dance this is the way they'd love

If they knew how misery loved me

Dance, dance

Dance, dance

Dance, dance

Dance, dance

She shifted the phone in her hand to her left ear, beginning to draw again on her large sketchbook that laid in her lap as she sat on the stool behind the front counter. Alexis was working today; as well as, Xander and Raven who were busy helping customers. There were several artists in her house working on their projects. They had stayed overnight, some with Alexis while the others stayed in the hotels. Ryan would allow some to stay with her. All of them had taken off for two weeks, traveling from all over the States to be here for Ryan and the store. Ryan felt less cloudy, less pissed at everyone and everything. She had stopped accusing them of thinking she was fucked up and began to realize they all cared. Enough to spend time up in the cold with her.
