You are dancing face to face
You are dancing cheek to cheek
You hold on tight
Tight as you can
Until you feel broke and weak
You hang on
Hang on for dear life
If you let go you're sure to fall
You are a dancer
At the cheater's ball
You know all the steps
You know 'em all by memory
You move in rhythm
Like a ticking clock
You rise and fall in reverie
You move through space and time
You move like a neanderthal
You are a dancer
At the cheater's ball
Your face is hidden in the crowd
Your body swallowed by the swarm
You laugh and then you weep
The abhorrent becomes the norm
You drown yourself in dreams
Dreams and alcohol
You are a dancer
At the cheater's ball
