Madeon ft. Passion Pit - Pay No Mind Lyrics

She was dancing, she was smiling
Roses blooming in her cheeks
In a quiet kind of litany
She accepted some defeat
And then she twirled into the arms
Of disgrace, and then repelled
Now, she's fallen to her knees
But you couldn't ever tell

And then, she asked me how we got here
I told her, "I don't know!"
And if you keep on asking
I'll just keep saying so
This isn't what I wanted
It isn't what you need
But let them keep on talking
Just calm yourself, and pay

Don't you pay them any mind
Don't you pay them any mind
You know this happens every time
Now, don't you pay them any mind

Let it burn, as if we'd bothered
We'll make sound based on their eyes
As she closes, just to open
There's some sirens wailing by
And as she's off to tell her secret
To her friends somewhere in town
And her friend just takes a moment
And that's why I'm not around
Darling, this is something
I should have told you long ago
I just want you to feel safe
I just want to make you glow
How you glowed when we were young
There was nothing on our minds
When you jump, for your love
Baby, you're nothing long of time

And then, she asked me how we got here
I told her, "I don't know"
And if you keep on asking
I'll just keep saying so
This isn't what I wanted
It isn't what you need
But let them keep on talking
Just calm yourself, and pay

Don't you pay them any mind
Don't you pay them any mind
You know this happens every time
Now, don't you pay them any mind

Why do we have to, go further every time?
Some days you hear it (don't listen, I'll carry you)
Some days you don't (to the universe we'll never go)
Sometimes you feel it (it's not worth it, help me)
Sometimes you won't
Just calm yourself, and pay

Don't you pay them any mind
Don't you pay them any mind
You know this happens every time
Now, don't you pay them any mind

Don't you pay them any mind
Don't you pay them any mind
You know this happens every time
Now, don't you pay them any mind
