Ballerina in a music box
~ Darling, are you a dream?
This feeling is too good to be real
The last person I loved wasn't too kind
I was in a prison waiting for my time to die
I thought I was in heaven like this until she was gone
And that's when I realized how hellish my life were
I felt like a ballerina in a music box,
dancing and dancing
I danced gloriously yet in a cage
Thought I loved to dance till the cage was shattered
I was discarded and left alone, a garbage among the rest
She threw me out while I was giving it my best
I've never faltered while I was dancing then
Yet I was no use for her in the end
And yet I feel no grief because now I am free
I wasn't a figure and actually am a human being
I dance in no box and only on a stage
And you darling, you're the one I Will dance with
You won't imprison me because you like to dance too
Let's show the audience our lovemaking and work
❁ I love you darling, my heart is yours
And again, I love you and my heart is yours ~
