The lights are out and the dance floor's waiting
But you're too busy blending in the crowd
The lights are out and the dance floor's waiting
But you're too busy following the crowd

And when you come back down now, girl
And when you come back down now, girl

When you were a young girl
Did you wanna be something more, baby?
But now you feel you're so lost
And you're burning up inside, yeah

We're clocking in to watch our fate come crashing down
We're clocking in to watch our fate come crashing down

I can't pretend I'm happy when and now I know it's pointless
I'm constantly on a down and I'm tired of waiting
Climb to the top, we climb to the top and now you're falling again

The lights are out and the dance floor's waiting
But you're too busy blending in the crowd
The lights are out and the dance floor's waiting
But your too busy following the crowd

And when you come back down now, girl
And when you come back down now, girl

When I was a young boy
I wanted to be something more, baby
But I can't dance, no, and I sure as ***k can't sing
We're clocking in to watch our fate come crashing down

When I was a young boy
I wanted to be something more, baby
But I can't dance, no, and I sure as ***k can't sing
We're clocking in to watch our fate come crashing down

Why do we play into this motive? What are you waiting for tonight?
You wonder, you wait and you can't
Get through this without a line
Now climb to the top, we climb to the top and now you're falling again

Lets break it down

Every thing's so jaded, baby
Father's trying hard to keep up with the Jones'
And his wife's so dirty, baby
***ing up every Tom, **** and Harry in town, let's go

I can't pretend I'm happy when and now I know its pointless
I'm constantly on a down and I'm tired of waiting
Climb to the top, we climb to the top and now you're falling again
