(Verse 1)
Whatever happened to helping a stranger
these days it seems people treat it as a danger
help thy neighbor is a thing of the past
everyone is too busy making sure their streaks last
if morals fall in society does it truly make a sound?
seems no one would notice till' it was hitting the ground
well if you're all so damn clever maybe one of you could tell me why you let it slip through your fingers?
(Verse 2)
It's not like i'm trying to boast or sterilize
i'm just sick of trying to figure out the reason why
everyone seems so tense take a seat and we'll start yes we'll start on the evening show
(Chorus)
Dance, dance yeah we're all falling apart
to the sounds of cameras and scrolling phones
shimmy, shimmy baby like you're out of control
shimmy, shimmy baby like you're out of control
hopefully we can find something to hold up
hopefully we can find something to hold
(Verse 3)
Let's just relax you know we're all friends here
it should come as no surprise that this tension seemed to apear
go have a drink or a smoke or whatever your chosen vice is
i'll just be sitting here waiting for my check to clear
(Breakdown)
it's time we admit we don't know what we're doing

(Verse 1)
It defeats the purpose when we have too much to say
just stick to kindly greetings they won't notice anyway
so much bitter resentment in the room like long forgotten dreams
so much pointless suffering with nothing to outweigh
(Chorus)
Like there's nothing else i'd rather say
you didn't want to hear it anyway
and all the ones that you left behind
in this city i'll sleep not one more night
(Verse 2)
Your cries for help fell on deaf ears
Down to the last pack and drank all the beers
i suppose there's nothing more you would've wanted me to do
you'd already fallen so far
you'd already fallen so far
yes you'd already fallen so far from the part of me you knew
(Bridge)
there’s nothing i could forget
no, nothing i could let slip
the moments past replay in my head
the way you thought that you’d be better off dead
and for the life that you were forced to lead
i’ll carry you with me and wear on my sleeves
(Breakdown)
for every time that i had not fought
somethings missing from you all along
i’ll cherish those words you said to me
and i’ll carry with me and wear it on my sleeves
wear it on my sleeves
