I don't want a friend (just me)
I want my life in two (my life in two)
Waiting to get there
Waiting for you (all night)
I'm done fighting all night

When I'm around slow dancing in the dark
Don't follow me, you'll end up in my arms
You have made up your mind
I don't need no more signs
Can you?
Can you?

Give me reasons we should be complete
You should be with him, I can't compete
You looked at me like I was someone else, oh well
Can't you see? (can't you see?)
I don't wanna slow dance (I don't want to slow dance)
In the dark
Dark

When you gotta run
Just hear my voice in you (my voice in you)
Shutting me out of you (shutting me out of you)
Doing so great (so great, so great)
You

Used to be the one to hold you when you fall
Yeah, yeah, yeah (when you fall, when you fall)
I don't fuck with your tone (I don't fuck with your tone)
I don't wanna go home (I don't wanna go home)
Can it be one night?
Can you?
Can you?

Give me reasons we should be complete
You should be with him, I can't compete
You looked at me like I was someone else, oh well
Can't you see? (can't you see?)
I don't wanna slow dance (I don't want to slow dance)
In the dark
Dark
In the dark
Dark
