lyrics

Ever since we found it, we've been stranded here.
Knowing that the enemy is drawing near/ I feel a pull when I touch it/
I can't keep it out of my mind.
I feel the world split open and darkness creeping into my spine.

I can't believe a radio would work out here.
It seems so unbalanced but I feel no fear/ Should we stay here forever
'Til darkness takes over our minds?
Should we stay here forever, should we dance 'til the end of time?

The more I think about it, the more I think we'll never be found.
We've got the stars and the trees and the dreams growing out of the ground.
And even if they find us, what's the worst they can do?
I'd rather stay here in the wilderness and dance with you.
And even if I lose my mind/ I'm gonna dance 'til the end of time.

Notes from the mainland and it's getting weird/ every day another friend has disappeared.
We don't know the reason but we think it might have something to do/
With the thing that we found, and the secret I've been keeping from you.

I see you acting nervous and I wonder why/
It doesn't really bother me at all if I die.
I'm gonna die dancing and I know it in the pit of my brain.
And even when they kill us I know our dance is gonna remain/
unchanged.
