[Verse 1]

 I know it’s a

 bad idea

 But how can I

 help myself

  Been inside 

for most this 

year
             
 And I thought

              
 a few drinks 

           
they might hel

p

It’s been a while my dear

 Dealing with 

the cards life

 dealt

  I’m still ho

lding back the

se tears

 While my frie

nds are somewh

ere else


[Pre-Chorus]
             
 I pictured th

              
is year a litt

       
le bit differe

nt when it hit

 February 
            
  I step in th

              
e bar, it hit 

   
me so hard

Oh how can it be this heavy?
             
 Every song re

              
minds me you’r

  
e gone 
              
And I feel the

              
 lump form in 

  
my throat
              
‘Coz I’m here 

 
alone


[Chorus]
              
Just dancing w

             
ith my eyes cl

     
osed
              
'Cause everywh

            
ere I look, I 

          
still see you
              
Time is moving

        
 so slow
              
And I don't kn

            
ow what else t

          
hat I can do

So I keep dancing with my

[Verse 2]

 Delusion is h

ere again

 And I think y

ou’ll come hom

e soon

  A word bring

s me right bac

k in
             
 Then it’s onl

              
y me that’s in

      
 this room

I guess I could just pretend

 The colours a

  But I lost m

 I can’t help 

but missing yo

[Pre-Chorus]
             
 I pictured th

tle bit differ

ent no one is 

ever ready 
            
  And when it 

              
unfolds you ge

       
t in a hole

Oh how can it be this heavy?
             
 Everything ch

              
anges, nothing

       
’s the same 
              
Except the tru

              
th is now you’

   
re gone
              
And life just

So I’m dancing

             
 with my eyes

They’re shutti

They’re cleani
