Lyrics
[Music Box]
[Intro – toy piano melody, eerie and delicate]
(whispered)
"Twist me tight... and I’ll pretend I’m free."
---
[Verse 1]
Porcelain smile, feet on the pin
Dress me in lace, rewind me again
They wind me up with words like gold
I dance the lie I’ve always been told
---
[Pre-Chorus]
They twist, I turn
They churn, I burn
A pretty little cyclone in a glassy urn
---
[Chorus]
I’m just a music box ballerina
Spinning in place, can’t get meaner
Same sad song, played with pride
A puppet in pearls with nowhere to hide
I spin, rewind, repeat
The cycle’s sweet…
But I want to break my beat.
---
[Verse 2]
Painted lashes, perfect stance
But this pirouette’s not romance
My joints creak truth behind the grace
There’s freedom just beyond this case
---
[Pre-Chorus]
The crowd leans in
The gears begin
But I feel the crack beneath my skin
---
[Chorus]
I’m just a music box ballerina
Trapped in a waltz they call arena
They clap, I spin, I cry offstage
In perfect time, in gilded rage
I smile, I break, I bleed
But still—I meet the beat
---
[Bridge – cinematic swell]
They loved the girl who danced on cue
But never asked what she’s been through
The glass is scratched, the wind’s run dry
And now, I’m dancing just to say goodbye
---
[Outro – slow, melodic, fading into silence]
Oooooooooh…
I’m still turning, to the tune of this melody
Feet still burning, as I dance to this final melody.
