Here are the complete lyrics of the song "The Ballerina" by War Honey, including background, meaning, and song info.
The Ballerina by War Honey The ballerina sits At the edge of the stage Twists and fidgets As it trembles and quakes At the pace of all the other Leaps and pliés The ballerina sits He has broken her legs The ballerina crawls Looking for an escape Stumbles and falls As he drags her away Opens the glass door And locks the display Where the ballerina sits Until she can reclaim But last time she got up She was picked up by her neck Thrown across the room He said, ‘think of the life I’ve been planning for you It’s all that I could ever dream Don’t you want that for me? Silly woman, think you can Move your own feet’ The ballerina lies Behind the glass Fearing his hands As the years come and pass And they surround her Everywhere she grows The ballerina lies Still and controlled Oh how she’d plead With those looking on Bang on the glass Beg them to respond But nobody could reach Her through the walls So they’d ask her why And away they’d walk Last time she got up She was picked up by her neck Slammed into the wall Told this is all you’ll ever be good for Run but I’ll be roaming through your sleep Every ounce of your being You’re my woman and you’ll live Only for me And when she got up It was anybody’s guess How hard she would fall She laughed, said ‘Falling is fucking inevitable If you’re dancing all around on broken feet Well then you are free So pull the glass out And accept you will bleed
