The Unlikely Candidates – Reaction lyrics

(Reaction!
I need a, I need a reaction!)

[Verse 1]
On a backstreet in the hardest part of time
I'm fucked up 'cause you're no longer around
I listen for a heartbeat
And my mind breaks, 'cause I know I let you down
And I'm scared that what's lost cannot be found
I listen for your heartbeat

[Pre-Chorus]
You're rolling
The police are patrolling
Patron and ice are flowing [?]
But you're done with me

[Chorus]
Oh, it's a final season
And if you're not leaving
Then I need a, I need a reaction
Oh, give you a reason
To keep on believing
Well I need a, I need a reaction
I need a, I need a reaction

[Verse 2]
And we move fast 'cause we knew, if we slow down
Pieces of our love would hit the ground
You're feeling for a heartbeat
And the room spins in a dirty dancing hall
And you won't be there again to watch me fall
You look at me in the eyes like it's the last time
Then you turn away when I need you now...

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm rolling
The police are patrolling
Patron and ice are flowing [?]
But you're done with me

[Chorus]
Oh, it's a final season
And if you're not leaving
Then I need a, I need a reaction
Oh, give you a reason
To keep on believing
Well I need a, I need a reaction
I need a, I need a reaction

[Bridge]
Your roses are red and my veins are blue
You see the love in my eyes, whatcha gonna do?
Your roses are dead and my veins are, too
You see the life in my eyes, whatcha gonna do?
You're staring at me but you don't make a move
Well, we ain't got a lotta time, so whatcha gonna do?
I can change, I can change, I can change
I can change for you

[Chorus]
Oh, it's a final season
And if you're not leaving
Then I need a, I need a reaction
Oh, give you a reason
To keep on believing
Well I need a, I need a reaction
I need a, I need a reaction

I need a, I need a reaction
