A/n: Hi. My friend, Claire, says hi too.

Troy:
We're falling, drowning
There's not a ball of incandescent gas in New Jersey
That we can reach

Gabriella:
If we're putting in no effort
So we're staying put

Troy:
You don't know Mars can see us
In a way that's the same as who we aren't

Gabriella:
Deleting space between us
'Til we're separate organs
Both:
But your faith it gives me weakness
Weakness to mistrust

Chorus #1
Troy:
We're staying put
Gabriella:
We're falling
Troy:
drowning
Both:
There's not a ball of incandescent gas in New Jersey
That we can reach
Troy:
If we're putting in no effort
Both:
Yeah, we're staying put
Troy:
Oh, we're staying put
Gabriella:
Ohhhh
Troy:
Can you feel it demolishing
Like a ripple the lake just can control
Gabriella:
Separated by a feeling
Ohhh, in our very organs
Both:
Lowering 'til it lowers us down
So no one else can see

Chorus #2
Troy:
We're staying put
Gabriella:
We're falling
Troy:
Drowning
Both:
There's not a ball of incandescent gas in New Jersey
That we can reach
Troy:
If we're putting in no effort
Both:
Yeah, we're staying put
Troy:
Oh, we're staying put

Gabriella:
Ohhhh walking
Troy:
descending
To get to nowhere
Both:
To not be all that we can't be
Troy:
Now's not the time
Both:
So we're staying put
Troy:
We're staying put
Gabriella:
Ohhh , no

Troy:
More than despair
More than distrust
Gabriella:
These are lies
This is not fate
And apart

Both:
We didn't see it comin'
Troy:
Less than me
More than you

Gabriella:
Not a need, but a want
Both:
Both of us staying put

Chorus #3
Gabriella: Falling
Troy: Drowning
Both:
There's not a ball incandescent gas in New Jersey
That we can reach
If we're putting in no effort
Troy: Yeah we're staying put
Gabriella:
Staying put
Were walking
Troy:
Ohhhh, descending
Both:
To get to nowhere
To be all that we can't be
Now's not the time
Troy: Now's not the time
Troy: So, we're staying put
Gabriella: Ohhhh

Both:
You don't know Mars can see us
In a way that's the same as who we aren't
