Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


Four years, took me long enough,
Had you in my grasp but then I gave up.
I was stupid for letting you go,
Had all these feelings I never let show.
I treated you wrong and I treated you right,
You were in front of me, now you're out of sight.
You're my fondest memory, far from a mistake,
I apologize for letting your heart break.
This is for you;
Everything I write is true.
It was a long battle all right,
But you were definitely worth the fight.
From day one I've been your prince,
Been in your life and haven't left since.
I had my chance at being your boyfriend,
But I screwed up somewhere and we met an end.
And don't think I'll talk bad like a stereotypical ex,
I'll praise you today, tomorrow, and even the next.
I will never admit this in person, but I will say that I was wrong,
I made you a promise to give you something special, and Lauren, this is your song.
One day I'm hoping I'll get to see,
The girl I love turn into a beautiful lady.
It's hard knowing I'm just gonna be an ex-lover,
That I'm supposed to move on with some other.
I don't think that will happen,
I'm not fixed enough to be broken again.
Hope you're doing okay, that you're doing fine,
Maybe we'll get another shot in time.
This is for you;
Everything I write is true.
It was a long battle all right,
But you were definitely worth the fight.
From day one I've been your prince,
Been in your life and haven't left since.
I had my chance at being your boyfriend,
But I screwed up somewhere and we met an end.
And don't think I'll talk bad like a stereotypical ex,
I'll praise you today, tomorrow, and even the next.
I will never admit this in person, but I will say that I was wrong,
I made you a promise to give you something special, and Lauren, this is your song.
You're cute, you're smart,
You own my heart.
You're beautiful, you're bliss,
You are what I miss.
You're soft, you're sweet,
You knock me off my feet.
Though you made me happy, you left with some fears,
Yes, I'm a boy, but I still shed tears...
This is for you;
Everything I write is true.
It was a long battle all right,
But you were definitely worth the fight.
From day one I've been your prince,
Been in your life and haven't left since.
I had my chance at being your boyfriend,
But I screwed up somewhere and we met an end.
And don't think I'll talk bad like a stereotypical ex,
I'll praise you today, tomorrow, and even the next.
I will never admit this in person, but I will say that I was wrong,
