Lyrics
Santana (with Brittany):
(He-he-hey, you and me)
Keep on dancing in the dark
It’s been tearing me apart
Never knowing what we are
(He-he-hey, you and me)
Keep on tryin' to play it cool
Now it’s time to make a move
And that’s what I’m gonna do
Artie:
Lay it all down (all down)
Brittany:
Got something to say
Artie:
Lay it all down (all down)
Brittany:
Throw your doubt away
Artie:
Do or die now (die now)
Brittany:
Step on to the plate
Artie:
Blow the door wide open like
Artie and Brittany:
Up up and away
Rachel with New Directions:
Let's light up the world toni-i-ight
You gotta give up the bark and bi-i-ite

Keep on staring at the road
Like we don't know where to go

Trivia
- This is the last time Lauren performs with New Directions, since she left in The Purple Piano Project after losing this competition.
- During the chorus, Santana used the opposite arm to which all of the other glee clubbers did to do the choreography. This is because Naya Rivera is left-handed.
- Although he did not have any lines in the performance, this is Kurt's first time to be performing/dancing in an original song.
Errors
- A cameraman can be seen near the end of the performance. Source
- After the performance, Sam stands on the right and Mercedes stands on the left side. In the close up shot, Sam walks over and hugs her. In the wide shot, Sam's on the right side again.
