[Verse]

            
It's not a sil

           
ly little mome

nt,
             
It's not the s

              
torm before th

  
e calm.
            
This is the de

              
ep and dying b

     
reath of
              
This love that

             
 we've been wo

      
rking on.

              
Can't seem to 

            
hold you like 

       
I want to
             
So I can feel 

          
you in my arms

.
            
Nobody's gonna

              
 come and save

 
 you,
              
We pulled too 

          
many false ala

rms.


[Chorus]

            
We're going do

wn,
             
And you can se

          
e it too.
            
We're going do

wn,
             
And you know t

          
hat we're doom

ed.
   
My dear, 
              
We're slow dan

             
cing in a burn

    
ing room.

      (x2)


[Verse]

        
I was the one you always dreamed of,
             
You were the one I tried to draw.
    
How dare you say it's nothing to me?
               
Baby, you're the only light I ever saw.


I'll make the most of all the sadness,

You'll be a bitch because you can.

You try to hit me just to hurt me

So you leave me feeling dirty

Because you can't understand.


[Chorus]

            
We're going do

wn,
             
And you can se

          
e it too.
            
We're going do

wn,
             
And you know t

          
hat we're doom

ed.
   
My dear, 
              
We're slow dan

             
cing in a burn

    
ing room.


[Bridge]

             
Go cry about i

              
t - why don't

Go cry about i

              
t - why don't 

           
you?
             
Go cry about i

              
t - why don't 

           
you?

            
My dear, we're

              
 slow dancing 

            
in a burning r

oom,
       
Burning room,
       
Burning room,
       
Burning room,
       
Burning room.
