[Intro]

      
      


[Verse 1]

           
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've pulled t

         
oo many false 

  
alarms


[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 dancing 

        
in a burning r

oom

Baby, you're t

I'll make the 


most of all th

e sadness
            
You'll be a bi

           
tch because yo

  
u can
           
You try to hit

'Cause you can

[Chorus]

            
We're going do


wn
            
And you can se
