Once Upon A Time V3

Once upon a time I believed in fairy tales

And happy ever after wasn’t far away

And once upon a time I believed the truth could save me

That I’d only have to be brave for one more day

It’s such a tragedy

Pure insanity

That drained the optimism out of me

And drug me back down to reality

Cause I don’t believe that now

Now that you’re gone away

Now that there’s no power left to save me

Or kiss strong enough to wake me

I’m lost in the fray

Somehow I wish I could find my way

My way back to okay.

Getting older’s made me colder

I look around and see suffering

But I don’t care cause I’m not bleeding

This was not who I wanted to be

But who I had to be to survive

So many attempted suicides

I sure you’re disappointed now

But now that you’re gone away

Now that there’s no power left to save me

Or kiss strong enough to wake me

I’m lost in the fray

Somehow I wish I could find my way

My way back to okay.

Give me a reason to be

Help me to find meaning

I keep drowning in who I think I should be

That I can’t face reality

She keeps turning her back to me

And now that you’re gone away

Now that there’s no power left to save me

Or kiss strong enough to wake me

I’m not the same

I’ve known only despair

Chanting this prayer

That one day I will find my way

My way back to okay.

Once upon a time I believed in fairy tales.
