I dance on glass shoes never knowing how fragile they may be

  Every click I hear from the heels on the floor makes me flinch

  I dance on, knowing that they cannot hold the weight of my steps forever

  I dance on, knowing how badly it will hurt when they break

  But how could I ever stop

  How could I end the dance knowing I perhaps could've gone a few steps more

  Instead I dance on, and dream as if I could dance forever

  Until my glass shoes break
