Dancing in the Lights

from Hello Anxiety by The Burning Lights

/

lyrics

I hear the hum of the lights down the hallway
I know I can feel you in my bones tonight
Funny how it seems the stars are falling from the sky
I know I can feel you in my veins tonight

I hear your car pull out of the driveway
I know I can feel my heart beat out of time
Every time you leave I feel like I'm waking from a dream
I know you're in my skin even when the walls are caving in

I'm buying whiskey at the corner store to take away the pain
Running through the streets at midnight, I’m so lost out in the rain
If I could get to you you know I would, I’d kiss your lips all night
Undress you as the room is spinning and we're dancing in the lights

I keep my medicine in a locked safe
My pulse is speeding up as you're racing through my mind
I'm dreaming of us in a parking lot
"Don't tell a soul dear”
We might get caught
As you press up against me with fog on the glass
I awake in my bed all alone and a mess

I'm buying whiskey at the corner store to take away the pain
Smoking cigarettes at midnight, chasing ghosts out in the rain
If I could get to you you know I would, I’d kiss your lips all night
Undress you as the room is spinning and we're dancing in the lights

The lights are flickering
My body's shivering
Your voice is echoing
You are my heroine
Lost in a tidal wave
And I cannot escape
I said "I might be a disaster babe, but take my hand, get in my car, and let's just run away”

I'm buying whiskey at the corner store to take away the pain
Running through the streets at midnight, I’m so fucked up in the rain
If I could get to you you know I would, I’d kiss your lips all night
Undress you as the room is spinning and we're dancing in the lights

I'm buying whiskey at the corner store to take away the pain
Running through the streets at midnight, I’m so lost out in the rain
If I could get to you you know I would, I’d kiss your lips all night
Undress you as the room is spinning and we're dancing in the lights

Dancing in the lights
Dancing in the lights
I'm holding you all night
I’ll kiss you as the world is ending and we're dancing in the lights
