These lyrics are difficult ( for me ) to make out.
(background)
don’t [ hold? ] me
don’t [ hold? ] me
gather up the [ ? ]
in your arms
gather up and [ ? ]
in your arms
what seems impossible
in your arms
i think i’ve had my fill
in your arms
i’ve been told to give up the ghost
in your arms
this dance
this dance
is like a weapon
is like a weapon
of self-defense
self-defense
against the present
against the present
present tense
i won’t get heavy
don’t get heavy
keep it light
keep it moving
i am doing
no harm
as my world
comes crashing down
i am dancing
freaking out
deaf dumb and blind
in you i’m lost
in you i’m lost
i won’t turn around
[ ? ]
i won’t stop now
i won’t slack off
all is lost
will be in vain
stop from falling
down a mine
[ ? ]
[ ? ]
but all is lost
will be in vain
in you i’m lost
in you i’m lost
in you i’m lost
in you i’m lost

{ edited on 9.21.09 in response to comment; changed “stop from falling [ ? ]” to “stop from falling / down a mine” }
{ edited on 9.21.0 in response to comment; added “will be in vain,” and changed “all is lost’ to “but all is lost” }
