Ballroom Song

I never saw one at all
Until I found it lying on the ground right in front of me
And now it’s hanging on my wall
Filled with a solvent that keeps it almost alive for me

I never saw one at all
Until I found it lying on the ground dead in front of me
And now it’s hanging on my wall
Filled with a solvent that keeps it almost alive for me

Almost alive
Almost alive for me
Almost alive
For me

It’s not the modern world that’s falling around me
Not the end of the world like I
Thought it would be
Cars crash
And I do too

It’s not the modern world that’s floating around me
Not the end of the world like you
Hoped it could be
Hearts crash
And I do too
And I do too
I do too
I do too

Salvation’s slippery slope with velvet burgundy curtains
Collapse of an empire
Rise of a wiry callous machine

It runs so smoothly with its mass production
Costs a nickel
That demon never sleeps
Never sleeps
Never sleeps
