I can remember stories

those things
my mother said
She told me fairy tales
before I went to bed

she spoke of
happy endings
My mind would fill
with visions

of perfect paradise
she told me everything
She said he'd be so nice
he'd ride up

on his horse and
take me away
one night
I'd be so happy with him

we'd ride clean out
of sight
She never said
that we would

curse, cry and
scream and lie
She never said
that maybe

some day
he'd say goodbye
The story ends

as stories do
reality steps into view
No longer living life
in paradise

of fairy tales
oooh
0h ooh eeeeh

hey uuh
She spoke about

happy endings
of stories not like this
I'd understand the story
he would be good to me
you never came
to save me
you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness

out in the cold
My story ends

like stories do
reality steps into view
No longer living life
in paradise

no fairy tales
oooooh yeah
Oh don't look up high
up in the sky baby

need reality now
see I...
Don't feel the need
to be pacified

don't cha try
Honey I know you lied
Out in the wilderness
alone in the cold

I found no magic potion
no horse with
wings to fly
I found the
poisoned apple

my destiny to die
no royal kiss
could save me
No magic spell to spin

my fantasy is over
my life must now begin
My story ends

like stories do
reality steps into view
No longer living life
in paradise

no fairy tales
oooh
Hey oooh

Hey, hey heeeey
mmm
