The lights are out and the dance floors waiting but your too busy blending in the crowd. The lights are out and the dance floors waiting but your too busy following the crowd.

And when you come back down now girl.(2x)

When you were a young girl did you wanna be something more baby. But now you feel your so lost and your burning up inside. Yeah

We’re clocking in to watch our fate come crashing down.(2x)

I cant pretend I’m happy when…….. and now I know its pointless. I’m constantly on a down and I’m tired of waiting. Climb to the top we climb to the top and now you're falling again.

The lights are out and the dance floors waiting but your too busy blending in the crowd. The lights are out and the dance floors waiting but your too busy following the crowd.

And when you come back down now girl.(2x)

When I was a young boy I wanted to be something more baby but I cant dance no and I sure as fuck cant sing. We’re clocking in to watch our fate come crashing down.(2x)

Why do we play into this motive. What are you waiting for tonight. You wonder, you wait and you cant get through this without a line. Now. Climb to the top we climb to the top and now you're falling again.

Lets break it down.

Every thing’s so jaded baby fathers trying hard to keep up with the Jones' and his wife’s so dirty baby sexing up every Tom, Dick and Harry in town. Lets go!

I can't pretend I’m happy when…….. and now I know its pointless. I’m constantly on a down and I’m tired of waiting. Climb to the top we climb to the top and now you're falling again.

    I was on a piczo site and this song was playing, it got right into my head despite it not being my usual type of music. So...i searched about and half an hour later (YES half an hour...and several sites later) i come across this. YAY! sucess. This song is just wonderful. Something what will be going straight on to my ipod. =]

    i think this song is about a guy's boyfriend how whenever they go out all she care about is how she looks and what everyone think of her that shes just following the crowd and trying blend in with everyone rather than being herself and the "climb to the top" part i think hes talking about their relattionship how they tryto be together and work things out but shes always falling becuase shes too busy worry about everything esle besides love hahaha sounds like high school all over again and the part "i can't pretend i'm happy when and now I know its pointless. I’m constantly on a down and I’m tired of waiting" i think that her boyfriend is going to break up with her becuase hes can't take her anymore she doesn't care about them she only cared about how she looks and what everyone esle thinks of her but hahaha this is just my opinon i'm not sure if thats what everyone esle thinks lol but yeah i LOVE this song its awesome! very catchy beats

    i think the guy in the song is tired of his chick being such a party girl and getting around while living such a secular life. and he's done putting up with her and trying to make things work
