The Balloon, the Flower & the Dancers

There once was a balloon
Blue and he had a dream
So he headed to the moon
He took his coat
He broke a seam
He took a fall and fell in the stream
Never to be found again

There once was a flower
Yellow like the sunny sky
She dreamed of finding power
To finally say goodbye
As it was time for her to die
Never to bloom again

There once was a dancer
Graceful and proud
She didn't dance for the applause
'Cause she didn't even have a crowd
She smiled and to the mirror she bowed
And again she danced, (She danced, she danced)
She danced

Should we be scared?
Should we be prepared?
Should we just not care at all?
'Cause whatever we do no one survives the fall

There once was a dancer
Tired of wearing broken feet
She would always shed a tear at night
'Cause she would never become a part of the elite
Soon she couldn't take the heat anymore (she felt defeated)
Never to dance again (Never to dance again)
Never to dance again (Never to dance again)
Never to dance again (Never to dance again)

Should we be scared?
Should we be prepared?
Should we just not care at all?
Should we be scared?
Should we be prepared?
Should we just not care at all?
'Cause whatever we do no one survives the fall

There once was a balloon (Might have been someone you knew)
(There once was a flower, withered when the gardener found her)
There once was a dancer
She found her answer
