We Dance Alone - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Send a telegram, tell me your thoughts

I wanna live for a day in the way that we lost

But unfortunately, the Twain got crissed not crossed

Left the keys in the car so the legs have to walk

On a desert terrain, we were wayward and plain

Waiting for rain in a decade afraid

Of what pain might do to the pleasure we knew

Before we had to move on I did my best for you

Darker, we dance alone this way

It's getting darker, we dance alone this way

I waited for a fire to come out of the ground

I tried to get back on the world as it was turning around

Splinters and pieces from a life that crashed

Watching every minute of the wreckage go past

'Cause motions wearing down all my thoughts

'Til they're all smoothed out like rocks we tossed

Ducks and drakes over water we go

Where we see there's only memories drowning below

Darker, we dance alone this way

It's getting darker, we dance alone this way

On a gravel train, we were waiting for hope

I was a light fading out like a stray on a rope

I let the scenery pass like a blown-out TV

Thought I saw a ghost but it might have been me

Might have been the world that was moving too fast

Caught up in the future that was drunk on the past

Now looking for a place where the nights unravel

Last ditch road trespassers travel on

Darker, we dance alone this way

It's getting darker, we dance alone this way

We dance alone this way
