[Chorus]

She a lil ballerina, she got my head spinning

I gave her the power to play with my feelings

I wasn’t strong on my own yet

So I wasn’t in the position to make good decisions

Nevertheless, shawty held up a pose for me

What a performance but now the show’s finished

Curtain call, round of applause for the love that we shared

I admire her now at a distance


[Verse 1]

I'm part of the crowd now cuz I'm not her partner

I'm back in the background, I'm way at the top

Looking down on her, sometimes our eyes wonder and meet

And thеn suddenly everything stops

Mеmories start to resurface and feelings emerge

That were gone, that were lost, that were strong

Maybe the truth is we’re both still in love

Tied together and share an unbreakable bond

That’s wishful thinking but I can still dream

I put my mind at ease when I create those scenes

Cuz I hate my reality, I’d rather sleep

Cuz all being awake does is cause me to weep

She's an interesting person, she's clothed in mystique

Ballerina, I swept that girl right off her feet

Then she slipped through my hands, all my wants and my needs

Disappeared when she left with my heart, she’s a thief


[Chorus]

She a lil ballerina, she got my head spinning

I gave her the power to play with my feelings

I wasn’t strong on my own yet

So I wasn’t in the position to make good decisions

Nevertheless, shawty held up a pose for me

What a performance but now the show’s finished

Curtain call, round of applause for the love that we shared

I admire her now at a distance


[Verse 2]

Still under control cuz I let her control me

Cuz I still consider her my one and only

Delusional thoughts that I can't seem to shake

Cuz I’d break if I didn’t have those to console me

She knew me when I wasn’t in a good place

But it turns out that I’m more fucked up than the old me

And I’m not surprised cuz she left me behind

High and dry, left to die, now I’m bleeding out slowly

I couldn't picture a life where she's not in the picture

I ripped up old pictures and poured out some liquor

I just wanna kiss her, I don’t wanna miss her

She’s fading to nothing, a shadow, a figure

She’s trapped in my mind, she’s a prisoner

And she’s the subject of all of my literature

We’re far from similar, she’s done, I’m into her

There ain’t no going back, there’s no convincing her


[Chorus]

She a lil ballerina, she got my head spinning

I gave her the power to play with my feelings

I wasn’t strong on my own yet

So I wasn’t in the position to make good decisions

Nevertheless, shawty held up a pose for me

What a performance but now the show’s finished

Curtain call, round of applause for the love that we shared

I admire her now at a distance
