[Verse] Shadows creep across the floor Don't know what I'm living for Empty rooms and empty days Lost in life's confusing maze [Chorus] Dancing in the dark, oh so slow Graceful steps, nowhere to go Sadness mixed with something grand In this strange and lovely land [Instrumental] [Verse] Pretty pictures on the wall Can't stop the tears that fall Fancy clothes and shiny things Don't fix the pain life brings [Verse] Twirling, spinning all around Feet barely touch the ground Feeling lost but looking fine A beautiful sad design [Chorus] Dancing in the dark, oh so slow Graceful steps, nowhere to go Sadness mixed with something grand In this strange and lovely land [Instrumental] [Verse] Time ticks by, day after day No words left to say But in silence, find a beat A rhythm makes life sweet [Verse] Stars shine bright up in the sky Don't know the reason why But their light makes darkness nice Turning sadness into ice [Bridge] The end is coming, don't you see? It's not so scary, just set free Embrace the dance, embrace the night In letting go, we find the light [Verse] Flowers bloom and then they die It's okay to wonder why But see the beauty in it all From spring to winter, summer to fall [Chorus] Dancing in the dark, oh so slow Graceful steps, nowhere to go Sadness mixed with something grand In this strange and lovely land [Instrumental] [Verse] So we'll dance until the end Our broken hearts will mend In sadness, find a gentle grace A smile upon each face [Coda] [End]
