I had planned at 10 years old
To try my best, do as I'm told
But that don't catch the pretty people's eyes
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 try my best to make in-jokes
I'd either trip up from my words or choke
So I ran back home and stayed inside my room
I swore I'd never go back alive
Shadows open shallow minds
But that was just a jealous boys 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 this comes insecurity, embarrasment and tragedy
Increasing fear of growing old lonely
I said I'd 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...
(No 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, woah-oh-oh
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...
Another year where I just close my eyes and dance inside my head
