A/N: I didn't have a specific character in mind when I wrote this, so it can be read from any of the Rozen Maiden dolls' point of view.
Disclaimer: I don't own Rozen Maiden.
Delicately dancing to the tunes of our fate
Fighting for which we have no control
It's already too late
Days long past seem like minutes gone by
With grace we continue on
No tears for us to cry
Moving in synch with the melody that sings
We follow along, watching
As that man pulls our strings
Approval and love is what we seek
Even if that means
Our own lives become bleak
A doll with breath and elegant as we
Sublime beauty for one
And that one will be me
Our destinies set with the goal in mind
Only one can be Alice
All the rest left behind
(Remember Kun-Kun as he floated about?
In some ways he's us
Save for only his snout)
We glide on the stage, our feet off the ground
Our moves all planned out
As we circle around
Is this fate; or what we chose?
To strive for perfection
No matter what we lose
Time passes on 'till words lose all meaning
Emotions once felt deeply
Now only for dreaming
Slumber overtakes us and we still hear that song
Even in death the strings dance
Our bodies move along
