"Don't Dance" lyrics

"Don't Dance"

Displace, contrast
Who wouldn't want to let this pass?
The snake must maw
It's getting caught trying to be something it's not
Keep it up so long
Maybe it should stay in the place it's lost
This too must pass
It's getting caught trying to keep it together

I don't dance
The world around me spins like a tornado
When you come
It's like nothing I've ever felt

So say, maintain
I never thought it'd be like that
The snake must maw
It's getting caught trying to keep it together

I don't dance
The world around me spins like a tornado
When you come
It's like nothing I've ever felt

My tragedy, the lion's mane
Getting right back up again
Dreaming of the perfect way
To say the things I should just say

And I don't dance
The world around me spins like a tornado
In your arms
You are the only thing I want
I don't dance
The world around me spins like a tornado
When you come
It's like nothing I've ever felt
