[Verse]
I wore my heart like a silken glove
Lost in the chaos of unrequited love
Every move's a whisper every look a flame
But I’m burning alone while he plays a game
[Verse 2]
Caught my own shadow in the malebox light
A memory spins from that dancing night
His face like a riddle I can never decode
Each step I take feels like a heavier load
[Chorus]
Tell me why does this rhythm fall apart
When I’m dancing solo in the dark of my heart
Confused and unsure like a song off-key
The look in his eyes says he's not for me
[Verse 3]
The floor's so cold it stings my bare feet
Tap
Tap
Tapping to a broken beat
His name fills the air like a tearstained note
But I drown it out in the song that I wrote
[Bridge]
Mirror don’t mock me as I spin and sway
I’m just a dancer who’s lost her way
Fingers tracing outlines of dreams I once drew
But they vanish fast like smoke from the blue
[Chorus]
Tell me why does this rhythm fall apart
When I’m dancing solo in the dark of my heart
Confused and unsure like a song off-key
The look in his eyes says he's not for me
