No happy ever after for me
I don’t believe in that shit you see
I take love as I find it
I won’t try to see behind it
Let it go, love again. There you go.
No fairytale romance in the sky
It’s a fantasy; a fool’s lullaby
Feel it when you feel it.
It’s not real, so you can’t steal it.
Just hold on, you’ll be fine. And move on.
There’s a high so high you’ll think that you can fly
But give it time my dear, you’ll have to watch it die.
Chorus:
With a bang or with a whimper,
And I couldn’t put it simpler:
As fires burn, it won’t last long. It’s short term.
Bridge:
I’ll save you your trouble, save you some mind
Truth hurts, but honey, I’m trying to be kind
I give you this, I set you free.
The first excitement casts a spell
but love does not age well.
Chorus:
With a bang or with a whimper,
And I couldn’t put it simpler:
As fires burn, it won’t last long. It’s short term.
