I know things may have gone so awry
But I'm still chasing glory
I know it's a funny song to listen to on my own
But I feel it deep in my bones
And these are stories that move me

If you're looking for me
And I know you will, not now yet, but one day
I'll be the one blending in standing out
The neon lights brushing the dark out of my way
I'll insist on going out into the crowd

Being awkward on the dancefloor
I'll never leave once I'm past the door
I know it will be my song, it will be my song
And I'm not sure I could actually dance to it
But it's as though I'm already there
And I told you I will collapse on my feet
And won't move away

Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care

You will be dancing to an ode to the loveless
And you're not dying with my forgiveness
You will be dancing to an ode to the loveless
And you're not dying with my forgiveness

I get so excited and so self-aware
When I know you'll eventually care

I know things may have gone so awry
But I'm still chasing glory
I know it's a funny story to write on my own
But I could stay up 'til dawn
Feeling so confident in the tale being drawn

If you're looking to be saved
And I know you will, not now yet, but one day
I'll be the one that ran away
Never letting anyone catch the wave
I'll insist on believing is on the way

Being awkward on the dancefloor
I'll never leave once I'm past the door
I know it will be my song, it will be my song
And I'm not sure I could actually dance to it
But it's as though I'm already there
And I told you I will collapse on my feet
And won't move away

Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care

You will be dancing to an ode to the loveless
And you're not dying with my forgiveness
You will be dancing to an ode to the loveless
And you're not dying with my forgiveness

I get so excited and so self-aware
When I know you'll eventually care

And this has become all I think of
And this has become my whole history
And this has become my identity
And this is what should define me
And this has become my sole motivation
And this has become my very own religion
And this is all I could ever believe in

Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care
Won't move away, not 'til I see you care

You will be dancing to an ode to the loveless
And you're not dying with my forgiveness
And you're not dying with my forgiveness
And you're not dying with my forgiveness
