Stiff my upper lip
I gave all I could give
I guess I just wasn’t made in his image
Push me past my limits
Granted all your wishes
Died for you, but I wasn’t forgiven

Tiptoe spinning around
Only words coming out your mouth are

Ballerina, won’t you dance for me?
Lost her head, but god, it’s perfect
Ballerina, baby, can’t you see?
It’ll kill you, but it’s worth it
Lose yourself once the curtains come down
I don’t know who I am right now
Ballerina, cry your eyes out
But you’re still gonna

Holy water dripping
Will somebody listen?
Broken body parts
Was hoping I could fix them
Bent and bleeding
So I could squeeze in your
Little tiny box for little tiny dancers
Ask me what it feels like tell me how to answer
Bent and bleeding
But you still need your

Ballerina, won’t you dance for me?
Lost her head, but god, it’s perfect
Ballerina, baby, can’t you see?
It’ll kill you, but it’s worth it
Lose yourself once the curtains come down
I don’t know who I am right now
Ballerina, cry your eyes out
But you’re still gonna

Ballerina, won’t you dance for me?
Lost her head, but god, it’s perfect
Ballerina, baby, can’t you see?
It’ll kill you, but it’s worth it
Lose yourself once the curtains come down
I don’t know who I am right now
Ballerina, cry your eyes out
But you’re still gonna
