[Verse 1]
That slow burn wait while it gets dark
Bruising the sun
I feel grown up with you in your car
I know it's dumb

[Verse 2]
We've both got a million bad habits to kick
Not sleeping is one
We're biting our nails, you're biting my lip
I'm biting my tongue

[Refrain]
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking

[Chorus]
Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done sayin' it
They all wanna get rough, get away with it
Let 'em talk, 'cause we're dancing in this world alone
World alone, we're alone

[Verse 3]
All my fake friends and all of their noise
Complain about work
They're studying business, I study the floor
And you haven't stopped smoking all night
Maybe the Internet raised us
Or maybe people are jerks
[Refrain]
The people are talking, people are talking
(But not you)
The people are talking, people are talking

[Chorus]
Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done sayin' it
They all wanna get rough, get away with it
Let 'em talk, 'cause we're dancing in this world alone
World alone, we're alone
All the double-edged people and schemes
They make a mess, then go home and get clean
You're my best friend and we're dancing in a world alone
A world alone, we're all alone

[Bridge]
I know we're not everlasting
We're a train wreck waiting to happen
One day the blood won't flow so gladly
One day we'll all get still, get still

[Refrain]
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
[Chorus]
Raise a glass, 'cause I'm not done sayin' it
They all wanna get rough, get away with it
Let 'em talk, 'cause we're dancing in this world alone
World alone, we're alone
All the double-edged people in schemes
They make a mess, then go home and get clean
You're my best friend and we're dancing in a world alone
A world alone, we're all alone

[Outro]
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
The people are talking, people are talking
Let 'em talk
