When things get too much
I turn to dance with you
I die in panic bouts
But you burn fire blue
And in the car ride home
After the parent’s meal
And all the prom dance glass
Love-me-not flower petal peels
But I should know by now
That these things last a while
And I should have learned by now
That I just don’t know how
Franklin read your online diary blog
And then he ate himself
The doors open if you stop on by
Just hang your keys up on the shelf
And we talked about nothing else
The same subjects that we always do
Lately when I’ve been trying to dance
I keep having trouble finding you
But I should know by now
That these things last a while
But I should have learned by now
That I just don’t know how
But I’m late, and you can’t wait
I’m always late, I’m always
