I see your sparkling sorrow filled eyes
Seeing the hurt and the horrible lies
Life did a number on you 

Feel the knife turn again as you spin
Ballerina of fear in a dance of sad sin
Life did a number on you

Wondering what you did wrong 
Is your ballad is your song
Life did a number on you 

Twisted smiles conceived in fear
Paint a world sustained in tears
You did a number on life
