Gracefulness and envy in its quintessence
with every step, a dangerous beauty unfolds
this brilliant dance where no one leads
this brilliant dance where all are deceived.
Leaping, an attempt to running away
trying to fly freely every time
swiftly flowing too fast to stop
hoping to escape from myself
Spinning supple limbs quickly
turning to loose site of everything
Dizzily defeating my own vision
yet ending up right where I started
Jumping, reaching for the sky
with no desire to ever land
but always feel my feet on the ground
for gravity defies me and wins every time
Some dance to remember.
I dance to forget.
But they'll never know.
They'll never know.
And so trained to play this brilliant dance
while behind the curtains I hide the pain
For you only see the performance, polished finish
as you sit in you comfortable seats and watch
as for one moment, through the twists and spins
my sorrow stays its strike for every saving step.
Some dance to remember.
I dance to forget.
But what happens after the curtain closes?
Oh, you'll never know. You'll never know.
