Everybody's Dancing and I Want to Die - Deaf Havana

I had a plan at ten years old

To try my best, do as I’m told

But that don’t catch the pretty people’s eye

I didn’t have the coolest hair

The newest clothes, or the richest parents

So I sat alone as the pretty girls walked by

I tried my best at making jokes

Only to trip over my words and choke

So I ran back home and stayed inside my room

I swore I’d never go back alive

Shallow talk with shallow minds

But that was just a jealous boy’s excuse

Cause everybody’s dancing and I don’t feel the same

This room is full of people who barely know my name

And I don’t feel like dancing on my own again

Another year without a friend

Another year where I just close my eyes and dance inside my head

With age comes insecurity

Embarrassment and tragedy

Increasing fear of growing old lonely

I said I put on my dancing shoes

But I’ve got two left feet and no good moves

The pretty girls found cooler kids than me

So I sat and waited patiently

Until the day I’d finally be asked

But it never came

Cause everybody’s dancing and I don’t feel the same

This room is full of people who barely know my name

And I don’t feel like dancing on my own again

Another year without a friend

Another year where I just close my eyes and dance inside my head

And I found it hard to take

Some time out of the days that I spent wishing I could be

Anyone but me

Cause everybody’s dancing and I don’t feel the same

This room is full of people who barely know my name

Cause everybody’s dancing and I don’t feel the same

This room is full of people who barely know my name

And I don’t feel like dancing on my own again

Another year without a friend

Another year where I just close my eyes and dance inside my head

Another year where I just close my eyes and dance inside my head
