ballerina

Stiff my upper lip, I gave all I could give
I guess I just wasn't made in His image (made in His image)
Push me past my limits, granted all your wishes
Died for you, but I wasn't forgiven (wasn't forgiven)

Tip-toe, spinnin' around
Only words comin' out your mouth are

Ballerina, won't you dance for me?
Lost her head, but, God, it's perfect

(But you're still gonna) d-d-d-d-d—, dance (ballerina)

Broken body parts, was hopin' I could fix 'em
Bent and bleedin', 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 bleedin', 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

(Dance, d-d-d-d—, dance) but you're still gonna
(D-d-d-d-d—, dance, d-d-d-d-d—, dance) (ballerina, ballerina)
But you're still gonna (dance, d-d-d-d—, dance)
But you're still gonna (dance, d-d-d-d—, dance) (ballerina, ballerina)
(D-d-d-d—)

(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
