Boys Like Girls - Dance Hall Drug Lyrics

Grown up, she just turned 16
Stuck in the moment and dead at the scene
And it's on tonight, this is the life that you wanted, right?
So turn off all the lights

Dressed up just like a movie star
At all the parties, they'll know who you are
Wouldn't it be great to be fashionably late?
So why don't you wait till you're sedated?

Don't it feel like something's not right in his kiss tonight?

Yeah, what I'm saying is
Do you, do you want to lose it all?
'Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love

All I'm saying is
Do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
'Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug

Step in and you can lock the door
The candles are lit and the clothes on the floor
You could take a chance on finding romance
Now you're holding hands but he's got other plans

Tick-tock, the clock is turning red
The room won't stop spinning and thoughts in your head
And it's too late, you feel like you're making a big mistake
You should've waited

Don't it feel like something's not right in his kiss tonight?

Yeah, what I'm saying is
Do you, do you want to lose it all?
'Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love

All I'm saying is
Do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
'Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug

Just wait, love, show 'em what you're made of
Don't it feel like something's not right in his kiss tonight?

Do you, do you want to lose it all?
'Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love

All I'm saying is
Do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
'Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug

Do you, do you want to lose it all?
'Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love

All I'm saying is
Do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
'Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug
