It's not a silly little moment It's not the storm before the calm This is the deep and dying breath of This love that we've been working on Can't seem to hold you like I want to So I can feel you in my arms Nobody's going to come and save you We've pulled too many false alarms We're going down And you can see it, too We're going down And you know that we're doomed My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room 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 'Cause you, you can't understand We're going down And you can see it, too We're going down And you know that we're doomed My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room Go cry about it, why don't you? Go cry about it, why don't you? And ooh, go cry about it, go cry about it My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room Don't you think we ought to know by now? Don't you think we should have learned somehow? Don't you think we ought to know by now? Don't you think we should have learned somehow? Don't you think we ought to know by now? Don't you think we oughta hadda learned somehow? My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room
