Callate y Baila

Shut Up and Dance

I, suburban ghost
Wandering through the ruins
Of another memory
You, dancing non-stop
Still pretending to be alive
Among the dead

Both affected
By the joy
Of perhaps someone who loved us
Who would have thought
From the ashes
A flower would still bloom

Me: How come you're here?
Long time no see!
Let's have a drink
Me: I came to look for you
Just kidding, you seem
A bit scared"

And beneath the industrial noise
I reviewed
All that I lost
You and your habit of talking
About your failures
And showing your scar

And you seemed to smile
Despite my sad summary
And finally silence appeared
With my fingers on your lips

And come
I don't want to be the verse
That inhabits your love songs
Shut up and dance

And today
Park the sadness
Today pain has the day off
Come what may
And I followed you

You, taking flight
Getting closer to the sun
Even if I burned
I, agnostic animal
Begging to your God
For the dawn not to break

Where can we go next?
You asked me
When the bar closed
And you felt like saying
"If you want
I could sing to you"

And I talked about the future
About how to save the universe
And I couldn't stop laughing
You silenced me with a kiss

And come
I don't want to be the verse
That inhabits your love songs
Shut up and dance

Today
You and I are eternal
Tomorrow we'll both forget
This early morning
And I followed you
