skyhighdiamonds When I first heard Jo Beth sing live her voice travelled across and along a river and as I headed back to the car I was captivated by its transcendent quality. This is another track that I can't wait to hear her sing live. Wonderful composition too.

about

From the soundtrack to 'A Doll's House 20/20'.

lyrics

These four walls are falling
but I can live as though, I can still keep walking.
We're full of holes and empty goals,
who are we to call on,
to save us all.

Yes I've been above it all before
but I can't fake it anymore.
You're not the only one who keeps on moving.
Coz, when you run, when you run
you're not falling.

Yes I will be on the rope.
Hold your head above the water
Mechanical Ballerina
Mechanical Ballerina

Without a key.

Put yourself
Put yourself back together.
