Holdin' back my arms, tryin' to feel okay
Trippin' over words you say without warnin'
Hangin' by the chain, tryin' to feel somethin'
Keepin' back the tears I cry

But we tried, oh we tried
And boy, it's hard to admit
That we lost what had
And you just so over it

I guess we dancin', oh dancin'
To different songs tonight
I'm with my friends
They say don't think of you
But that's all I do
I guess the DJ, the DJ

Knows when he turns up the light
That is not the kind of weather
To be dancin' in your sweater
(Sweater)

Freedom isn't worth the price I pay
Memories of you are no consolation
Hangin' by the chain, tryin' to feel somethin'
Keepin' back the tears I cry

It's too bad, it's too bad
And boy, it's hard to admit
That we lost what we had
And I'm still holdin' on to it
I guess we dancin', oh dancin'

To different songs tonight
I'm with my friends
They say don't think of you
But that's all I do
I guess the DJ, the DJ

Knows when he turns up the light
That is not the kind of weather
To be dancin' in your sweater
(Sweater)

I know I've got long way to go before
I lift myself from this black hole, oh
I know I've got long way to go before
I lift myself from this black hole
I guess we dancin', oh dancin'

To different songs tonight
I'm with my friends
They say don't think of you
But that's all I do
I guess the DJ, the DJ

Knows when he turns up the light
That is not the kind of weather
To be dancin' in your sweater
I guess we dancin', oh dancin'

To different songs tonight
I'm with my friends
They say don't think of you
But that's all I do
I guess the DJ, the DJ

Knows when he turns up the light
That is not the kind of weather
To be dancin' in your sweater
(Sweater)
