A Dancer in Her Room
Locked in this room, but I am free here
Nobody knows what this is worth
No judging eyes, no hopeless expectations
Just empty time to fill with my heart’s desires
Color this silence with a beautiful melody
A musical rainbow that wraps me up
Speak so loud that the outside world can hear it
But I only know what it’s truly worth
No, no, no, I can’t hear my troubles
Drowned them all in my ocean of musical reverie
Waves crashing are just beating drums
And the sirens got me caught up in their song
Four walls, will you keep my secret?
It’s obvious that I’ve had no training
But this music is throbbing in my veins
And my soul is begging for some freedom
Barren floor, you will know my rhythm
Feel my feet tap, kick, and spin
I may slip, miss a beat, but I’ll be smiling
Nobody really knows what this is worth
