The Brilliant Dance

So this is odd
The painful realization that all has gone wrong
And nobody cares at all
And nobody cares at all

So you bury all your lovers clothes
And burn the letters lover wrote,
But it doesn't make it any better
Does it make it any better?
And the plaster dented from your fist
In the hallway you had your first kiss
Reminds you that the memories will fade

So this is strange
Our sidestepping has come to be
A brilliant dance
Where nobody leads at all
Where nobody leads at all

And the picture frames are facing down
And the ringing from this empty sound
Is deafening and keeping you from sleep
And breathing is a foreign task
And thinking's just too much to ask
And your measuring you minutes by
A clock that's blinking 8's
Well this is incredible
Starving, insatiable,
Yes, this is love for the first time
And you'd like to think that you were invincible
Yeah, well, weren't we all once
Before we felt lost for the first time?
This is the last time
This is the last time
This is the last time
