[Verse]
She stares at the ceiling it's a lonely show
Fighting with shadows nobody will ever know
Eighteen years but her heart feels old
Her thoughts are heavy carved in the cold
[Pre-Chorus]
She paints on a smile but it's cracking apart
A masterpiece fading still guarding her heart
Whispers get louder when the night comes through
The mirror's no friend but it shows the truth
[Chorus]
Oh she's dancing with the darkness in her mind
A fragile star fighting endlessly to find
A way to breathe inside a crowded room
Hoping one day it will all resume
[Verse 2]
Books with blank pages her diary screamed
Tied to the words of dreams she once dreamed
Clouds in her mind and a storm in her soul
The weight of it all takes a quiet toll
[Bridge]
But wait there's a flicker a tiny spark
A light in the void of her endless dark
The fight in her blood she begins to rise
Eighteen lights shining in her weary eyes
[Chorus]
Oh she's dancing with the darkness in her mind
A fragile star fighting endlessly to find
A way to breathe inside a crowded room
Hoping one day it will all resume
