Time to dance

Twirl and whirl and spin

Skip and jump and laugh and sing

Hands extended

above the H e a d

Standing on tiptoes

Balancing

on one leg

The music is tinkling

Like bells

Or

is it just

IN YOUR HEAD

?

It doesn't matter…

Because

you're happy

And you

And dance

But you

why

you dance

Or do you dance to forget?

Does it matter?

It doesn't, does it?

Because you're happy(sad)content

And everything

is

just

so

perfect

So, darling, tell me

why are you alone?

(they're gonegonegonegonegone)

Alone? you say

I am not alone

I am happy

I really am

You are confused

But not really worried

As you are happy

And that's all that matters

Still…

dear,

don't you wish to remember?

Aren't you at least a bit curious?

NO?

And even if…

your insides burn

your eyes sting

your lips crack

your tongue itches

and your mind begs

begs to KNOW

You still ignore it

But your ignorance is slipping

Slipping…

away

You clutch it

desperately

madly

And still it slips

And shatters

And you SCREAM

(dreams of lost boys, sunny days and family. oh how you wish you were gone. oh how you wish you were lost. oh how you wish…)

(but there's blood. and you're the only thing left)
