The beat is solid   Opportunity is in the air   The lights move with rage and so do I   Let's dance like it's 1989   Not too fast but not too slow   Searching for a reason to turn back, your mind went blank      Let's dance around the things we dare not speak of   Let's dance around what we live to avoid   Silence anything that poses problems   Denial is breaking us apart      I turn the corner   Surrounded by stained glass   The love and hurt is gone for sure   This church is only made of stone   Oh God, protect me from elders gone astray   From being pushed to the street   Never to return again      Let's dance around the things we dare not speak of   Let's dance around what we live to avoid   Silence anything that poses problems   Denial is breaking us apart      You'd better dance like no one else watchin' you   Oh yeah   Don't let them tell you who you need to be      Let's dance around the things we dare not speak of   Let's dance around what we live to avoid   Silence anything that poses problems   Denial is breaking us apart      We could, we could, dance all night!
