She stood in the dark at a window
No one came looking at all
And all that remained, was washed down the drain
She got lost on the way to the ball
.....'lost on the way to the ball

She suffers in amplified silence
She stifles and steams from within
She slams on the wall, screams down the hall
She got lost on the way to the ball
....'lost on the way to the ball

Yeah it's cold as porcelain Lover
clear as the mud on the wall
We have no means of controlling these things
we get lost on the way to the ball
...'get lost on the way to the ball

Everyone knows who you are now
...nobody cares much at all
'cause just like a song, you're here then you're gone
you get lost on the way to the ball
...'get lost on the way to the ball

everyone's learning to dance now
....as everyone's learning to crawl
you can win the rat race if we stay in our place
we get lost on the way to the ball
...'get lost on the way to the ball

oh, how in the world did you miss it'
how could this mess be your fault''
the trail was not clear, the moon disappeared
you got lost on the way to the ball
............'lost on the way to the ball
