Don’t Wanna Dance Lyrics by The Ballroom Thieves

Unlovely

2020

So this is what it feels like to win
I dance with all the hours of the night again
Spending all my hard-earned blood on temporary things
This is what it feels like to win
Twigs and bones
My wild mind just don't know how to have a home
She brings me truck stop souvenirs from every fucked up place she goes
Tender twigs and lonely bones
Lift the needle from the table
If you don’t wanna dance
Lift the needle from the table
If you don't wanna dance
It's an ordinary price to pay to step up on your toes on the razor blade
Everyone gets cut
Maybe I just came here too soon
I spilled some water and it all began to bloom
I didn’t come here just to break my quiet voice and make you swoon
Maybe I just came here too soon
Lift the needle from the table
If you don't wanna dance
Lift the needle from the table
If you don't wanna dance
Lift the needle from the table
If you don't wanna dance
Lift the needle from the table
If you don't wanna dance
It's an ordinary price to pay to step up on your toes on the razor blade
Everyone gets cut
Everyone gets cut
Oh, you gonna get cut
