Lyrics:
When I was seventeen
My best friend looked at me
Said Al, I got your back
But you gotta start eating
I lost myself in ’15
To someone else’s driving
Didn’t make a big scene but
The road took a part of me from me
So what if we’re not afraid of living anymore It only means that we found something good to die for I’m a dancer, I know dancing
Like the back of my hand
I’m a dancer, Even if I can’t dance
Was thinking God can’t be real
But I’ve been crying wolf for a year
My friends are on drugs again
So stop complaining
But then God came to my bed
He put his foot down on my chest
And I never stood straight again
And I never stood straight again
And I never stood straight again
And I never stood straight again
So what if we’re not afraid of dying anymore It only means that we found something good to die for I’m a dancer, I know dancing
Like the back of my hand
I’m a dancer, I’m a dancer
Even if I can’t dance
I’m a dancer, I know dancing
Like the back of my hand,
Even if I can’t
Live and learn and give and take
No Fibonacci sequence
Fate is what you make of all your worst days I’m a dancer, I know dancing
Like the back of my hand
I’m a dancer, I’m a dancer
Even if I can’t dance
Even if I can’t dance
Even if I can’t dance
Even if I’m a dancer
Even if I can’t
