[Intro]
Hey, I'm totally in the full heat of this one, so I haven't bothered to tune, so I'm not at 440 here. I don't know what to tell you. I'm in G, anyway, if anybody's taking notes. "January 31, 438."

[Verse 1]
When the hunger turns in on itself, it begins to devour its host
Who do you turn to for help?
Who do you love the most?

[Refrain]
I dance with the ones that brought me
I dance with the ones that brought me here

[Verse 2]
When the word comes down
The wire that they're looking to make an example of you
Skin and bones around a campfire beneath the stars
No good end in view

[Refrain]
I dance with the ones that brought me
I dance with the ones that brought me here

[Bridge]
I dance in the dark, all alone
I dance for the god on the throne
If they come catch me and arrest me, mid step
Let me go down dancing, let me be the last one left
