If I continue dancing for you
Will you decide to join me?
Will you hold me
In the comfort of loving arms?
Will you guide me
Across this wooden floor?
Will you dance with me?
Or shall I dance over tears
And twirl around my lover
Who will never learn how to dance

We went to his old house today
I helped him collect his belongings
And also throw away some
I stood in silence
Engulfed in my thoughts
Of how many of these things were hers
Or were from her
And I saw the changes in his expressions
With each item
And I hate that he allows me to have wonder
If these things brought his mind
Back to the past
And even after a years time
I still can't help to feel second
To the girl who could never love you
Like I do

I was so full of words
So full of life
So put together
And everytime I looked at the sun
My eyes stayed wide open

Now:
I'm at a loss of words
I feel lifeless
I feel lost
And everytime I look at the sun
I squint my eyes out of fear

I am dancing around the problem
With a smile on my face
All for you
To find me endearing
I can't remember the last time
You danced with me
I came to think this way:
you're too quick to cut me off
When I wait around by the phone
Only to hear your apathetic tone
Creating a fog
I can't see my feet anymore
But I know where I'm venturing to
Oh how I know how to dance
Around a problem

It ******* ***** that you broke our trust
Because ever since I've taken you back
I've been insecure as ****
Even though you have been wonderful
And I don't want to be that way
I'm just so afraid to lose you
All over again
All while loving you
more than I did the first time

I want to rip out my rib cage
And make it into a piano
I want to open my chest
And let my heart beat act as a drum
I want to open up my wrist
And make my veins into a guitar
So that I can write the saddest song
About a girl who had everything
Until she let herself go
Into a dark hole of endless lies
That she began to believe
I want to write the saddest song
About a girl who knew she could
Until she was told she couldn't
The girl thought she could be lovely
Until society made her think she was ugly
It isn't fair
For a girl who had it all right
To be lost and be wanting to die
I hope the song doesn't end with her ending
Because I am the girl
Who is left playing a song
That never knows the next word to sing
