It Works

(album: Uncanny Valley - 2022)

I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You gonna cry, baby, cry and we'll call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken

Yeah we're walking on a tightrope
Driving with our eyes closed (Yeah)
Heaven never hurt so much
Flipping through the TV
Wrestling with Jesus, I
Feel like we're losing touch

What can I say? I'm sick of serotonin
Looking at the bright side (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
What can I do when we're going through the motions
And just twisting the knife? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You gonna cry, baby, cry and we'll call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) That don't mean it's not broken

Yeah we're driving in the backseat
Mirror looking past me (Yeah)
I don't know who I trust
I'm talking slipping out the backroom
Bubblegumming bad news
Why cry over paper cuts? (Cuts)

What can I say? I'm sick of serotonin
Looking at the bright side (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
What can I do when we're going through the motions
And just twisting the knife? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You gonna cry, baby, cry and we'll call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) That don't mean it's not broken
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I'll take you back to the house and we're falling at first
You wanna dance, baby, dance when you're down on your luck
You gonna cry, baby, cry and we'll call it love
Just 'cause it works
That don't mean it's not broken
