Countdown

So you're dancing into the night
Lost most everything you own with the last light
So you're dancing, and nobody cares
Are these people that you know becoming self-aware?

You'll make resolutions that you cannot keep
You'll drink too much and you'll probably weep
But it won't be long
It won't be long
No you don't own your money you don't own the beat
But you own your heart and those two left feet
But it won't be long
Yeah it won't be long

Oh my darling, don't wait to reply
That boy is biting off his lip to be denied
He'll go fighting, he'll probably die
With the boys filled with joy 'cause
they've crushed some toys with their might

Go take the one friend you can just about stand
Put your cold old heart in their open hands
But it won't be long
No it won't be long
You've spent days and nights trying find your brand
You've been telling jokes that you just can't land
But it won't be long
Yeah it won't be long

Just keep dancing into the night
Will I never ever see the sunlight
Oh I'll call you a cab, get you something to eat
If you promise me you won't go to sleep
'Cause it won't be long
No it won't be long

The year was long, the longest yet
The countdown will begin again
You feel like shit, but don't regret
The countdown will begin again

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

No it won't be long
No it won't be long
