Ballerina in a music box
With your pink shoes on
Satin ribbons in your hair
Dance to something soft and sweet
Ghost of a little girl
Who fell asleep there, right beside me

You look so beautiful and lost

But don't turn out the light this time
Don't turn out the light on me tonight

This is simple, this is new
That's why I'm not scared of you
But you're afraid in ways that I can't comprehend
I do not pretend to live beneath your soft blonde hair, inside your head
Wrapped up in darkness
Slow dancing with despair

You look so beautiful and lost

But don't turn out the light this time
Don't turn out the light on me tonight
Don't turn out the light
Don't turn out the light
Don't turn out the light this time

Spinning harder now, you seem confused
I close my eyes, but I'm still watching you
If you're broken, I will gather up your pieces from the filthy ground

But don't turn out the light this time
Don't turn out the light on me tonight, on me tonight
Don't turn out the light
Don't turn out the light
Don't turn out the light on me tonight, on me tonight
Don't turn out the light

You look so beautiful and lost
Oh, you look so beautiful and lost
