I remember innocence as if it were a dream
The reality was closer than it seemed
I remember waking up to find the dream had ended. Why?
Why do we try so hard to make things that were never meant to be work? why did we?

I don't believe in fairytales
Or wishes on a shooting star
Cause it always fails
But I do believe in broken promises
In the words we said but we never meant
In the bruises that he left
In the pain I felt

I remember just walking away
So many times before just to return again that same day
Does he remember how I cried
Does he know how I died?

I don't believe in fairytales or wishes on a shooting star
Cause it always fails
But I do believe in broken promises
In the words we said but we never meant
In the bruises that he left
In the pain I felt

This is my fairytale
I'm trapped in my tower
Fighting my way through hell
Cause my prince is my captor

I don't believe in fairytales or wishes on a shooting star
Cause it always fails
But I do believe in broken promises
In the words we said but we never meant
In the bruises that he left
In the pain I felt

I don't believe in fairytales or wishes on a shooting star
Cause I watched it fail
So I laid aside his promises
Finally said the words I had always meant
And then I finally left

I don't believe in fairytales
Cause mine has failed
So now I'm rewriting the book
It's time you took a second, second look

This is my fairytale
I am free
