Dancer In The Dark

She got her head in the dirt
And her neck in my hands
She won't live too long with a mind like that
I can't hang everyday, baby, I've got plans
I won't waste her time with a life like that

Keep your hands on your face
Don't let 'em slip off with the pressure, no
Just stay blind
Take a gram to the face
Don't let 'em see your depression, no
It's not right

Oh baby, maybe it's that look in your eyes
They've been telling me she wanna leave
She's been dancing with the devil all night
It's like Hell is where she wannna be

She got a smile on her face and a knife in her hand
She don't look too sane when she acts like that
She said, "It's hard to relate when you don't understand"
Ooh, yeah
Well, get your shit straight, baby, I am not your mans

Keep your hands to yourself
Don't put 'em on someone else's life
Stay right there, right there
Take advice from yourself
If the energy's dead, baby, let things die
I don't care
Oh, no

Baby, it's that look in your eyes
They been telling me she wanna leave
She's been dancing with the devil all night
It's like Hell is where she wanna be
Now, watch her dance in the dark
Watch her dance in the dark
Watch her dance in the dark
Watch her dance in the dark
Ooh, yeah

I love to watch her dance
When the light's all gone her emotion shows
I love to watch her dance
Seems like tragedy is all she knows

Baby, it's that look in your eyes
(Baby, it's that look in your eyes)
They been telling me she wanna leave
(They been telling me she wanna leave)
She's been dancing with the devil all night
(She's been dancing, she's been dancing)
It's like Hell is where she wanna be
(It's like Hell is where she wanna be)
Now, watch her dance in the dark
(Watch her dance)
Watch her dance in the dark
(Dancing in the dark)
Watch her dance in the dark
(Ooh, dancing in the dark)
Watch her dance in the dark
(She's a dancer in the dark, ooh, ooh)
