Pressure to party, gonna stay in
Nothing good can come from me drinking
I would run, shoes off, straight back to you
I know where you live, I used to live there too
Pressure to feel fine after the fact
Out on the dance floor with my body back
Meeting a stranger, touching his face
I don't want anyone to ever take your place
Pressure to go strike out on your own
Pressure to learn from being alone
Pressure to not leave it for too long
Before you find another heart where you belong
Pressure to come up with conversation
Makes the family fine with my isolation
I know I've locked myself in my room
But I'll open up the door and try to love again soon
Try to love again soon
Try to love again soon
Try to love again soon
Pressure to act the right way around
And we're both in the crowd with people surrounding us
What do I do? Don't know how it works
Pressure to not let the inside of my mind
Spill onto the floor for our friends to find
And, oh, what do I do? 'Cause God how it hurts
Pressure to come up with reasons why
Sometimes it might look to you like I'm not even trying
I know I've locked myself in my room
But I'll open up the door and try to love again soon
Try to love again soon
Try to love again soon
Try to love again soon

I'd rather dance with you than talk with you
So why don't we just move into the other room
There's space for us to shake and hey, I like this tune
Even if I could hear what you said
I doubt my reply would be interesting for you to hear
Because I haven't read a single book all year
And the only film I saw, I didn't like it at all
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
The music's too loud, and the noise from the crowd
Increases the chance of misinterpretation
So let your hips do the talking
I'll make you laugh by acting like the guy who sings
And you'll make me smile by really getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you

You've expressed explicitly your contempt for matrimony
You've student loans to pay and will not risk the alimony
We spend our days locked in a room content inside a bubble
And in the night time we go out and scour the streets for trouble
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
During the summer take me sailing out on the Atlantic
I won't set my sights on other seas, there is no need to panic
So honey take me by the hand and we can sign some papers
Forget the invitations, floral arrangements and bread makers
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Too late to go out, too young to stay in
They're talking about us living in sin
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, A.R.C.H.I.E.

Sensitive heart, you're doomed from the start
Meant to play the penitent part
Inquisitive mind, you're destined to find
Tempted fate and knowledge divine
Here and there a pitied pair
Denoted by a scene unfair
Will you make my children bear
The consequences everywhere?
Is it so hard to forgive
The way that we have been made to live?
How much is required to set things right?
Have you confused your power with might?
Here and there a pitied pair
Denoted by a scene unfair
Will you make my children bear
The consequences everywhere?
Imminent you seem to be
A picture of fragility
What is it that you think of me?
Is it a woman that you see?
Is it so hard to forgive
The way that we have been made to live?
How much is required to set things right?
Have you confused your power with might?
Is it so hard to forgive
The way that we have been made to live?
How much is required to set things right?
Have you confused your power with might?
