"Pirouette" lyrics

"Pirouette"
(feat. Faris Badwan)

I don't wanna know
The way it happened
I'm tired of dancing 'round the words I throw out in the dark
I don't wanna see
You tamed and broken
I don't wanna pin you down like others would
To keep you in suspense

But now you're falling out
And you can't catch your breath
And you're slipping out of frame until there's nothing left

See you in this never-ending pirouette
Turn to me and catch the light in silhouette
Now they'll never see you falling out of step
But I won't forget
No, I won't forget

I don't wanna know
The way it happened
I'm tired of dancing 'round the words I throw out in the dark
I know you could be

Falling out
And you can't catch your breath
And you're slipping out of frame until there's nothing left

See you in this never-ending pirouette
Turn again, you'll catch the light in silhouette
Now they'll never see you falling out of step
But I won't forget
No, I won't forget

As you're falling out
You can't catch your breath
And you're slipping out of frame until there's nothing left

See you in this never-ending pirouette
Gliding as you catch the light in silhouette
Now they'll never see you falling out of step
Just a perfect pirouette
