The Dance of Instead

All my life your light has been stuck in my head You're on my mind when I get out of bed Thinking about if we never were friends What would we be instead? Cause you and me as a team, they just don't stand a chance The looks go off, paint the whole world in red But we keep doing some things we regret Like the dance of instead We were barely teens on the day that we met First day, new school, always lowered my head You sat by me and you quietly said "You wanna be friends?" Don't think I said yes, but you went on ahead You'd hang with me every chance you would get You'd wave goodbye every time that you left But we were too young, too dumb, we were too immature To know what we had rarely ever occurs Grown up, glowed up, maybe something was stirred Maybe something was learned All my life your light has been stuck in my head You're on my mind when I get out of bed Thinking about if we never were friends What would we be instead? Cause you and me as a team, they just don't stand a chance The looks go off, paint the whole world in red But we keep doing some things we regret Like the dance of instead High school life went by faster than I could blink New town, new dorm, now we're sharing a sink Same hall, same class, got the same group of friends Why do we still pretend like We're just two buddies not in love with the thought of Lying down together underneath the same cloth Like old-school married lovers Bound to die on the cross for love And I just can't get enough because All my life your light has been stuck in my head You're on my mind when I get out of bed Thinking about if we never were friends What would we be instead? Cause you and me as a team, they just don't stand a chance The looks go off, paint the whole world in red But we keep doing some things we regret Like the dance of instead (All my life your light has been stuck in my head) (You're on my mind when I get out of bed) (Thinking about if we never were friends) All my life your light has been stuck in my head You're on my mind when I get out of bed Thinking about if we never were friends What would we be instead?
