Ballerina
Dancing in Despair: Unveiling the Struggle of BeautyLyrics
I'll be your ballerina
Willingness to embody grace and beauty for someone
Spin me on your pedestal
Allowing oneself to be displayed or exhibited
Say that I'm the pinnacle
Being considered the highest point or achievement
Turn your back on me as I fall
Being abandoned or ignored when in need
I'll be your ballerina
Reiteration of willingness to be elegant and graceful
Glittering inside the light
Shining or sparkling in the spotlight
Crying through my coldest night
Experiencing sadness or emotional pain in private
No one said it would be hard to be beautiful
Struggle with societal expectations of beauty
Nobody sees how hard I have to try
Unnoticed effort put into meeting standards of perfection
To be a perfect person in your eye
Striving to meet someone else's idealized image
Watch me as I leap around
Performing and moving around, seeking validation
And dance along with
Dancing to please someone's preferences
Your favourite sound
Adapting to someone's favored music or sound
Will I just be another porcelain doll
Fear of being seen as fragile or easily replaceable
Cross-legged upon a bookshelf in your hall
Metaphorically feeling displayed and overlooked
Watch as guests admire me
Observing oneself being admired superficially
Blankly staring down at my feet
Feeling disconnected or detached during admiration
I'll be your ballerina
Reiteration of willingness to embody grace and beauty
Spin me on your pedestal
Allowing oneself to be displayed or exhibited again
Say that I'm the pinnacle
Being considered the highest point or achievement again
Turn your back on me as I fall
Being abandoned or ignored when in need again
I'll be your ballerina
Reiteration of willingness to be elegant and graceful
Glittering inside the light
Shining or sparkling in the spotlight again
Crying through my coldest night
Experiencing sadness or emotional pain in private again
No one said it would be hard to be beautiful
Struggle with societal expectations of beauty again
I want to see the world
Desire to experience life similarly to others
Like everyone else
Feeling different from the norm
But everyone else is normal
Observation of societal conformity
And I'm beautiful
Conflicting feelings about uniqueness and beauty
Piano sings to my art
Musical expression linked to artistic expression
Forever playing my part
Consistently playing a role for others
When will it be my heart
Longing for personal recognition and acknowledgment
That they see
Yearning for inner qualities to be acknowledged
Pretty face in despair
Feeling distressed despite outward appearance
Reflected in the silverware
Seeing one's distress reflected indirectly
When are they going to care
Desire for genuine concern and attention
About me
Seeking acknowledgment of personal struggles
I'll be your ballerina
Willingness to embody grace and beauty yet again
Spin me on your pedestal
Allowing oneself to be displayed or exhibited once more
Say that I'm the pinnacle
Being considered the highest point or achievement once more
Turn your back on me as I fall
Being abandoned or ignored when in need once more
I'll be your ballerina
Reiteration of willingness to be elegant and graceful again
Glittering inside the light
Shining or sparkling in the spotlight again
Crying through my coldest night
Experiencing sadness or emotional pain in private again
No one said it would be hard to be beautiful
Struggle with societal expectations of beauty again
