(Verse)
I once believed there was someone out there for me,
But now that’s just become a fading dream.
I’ve faced heartbreak at every turn,
I’ve had to watch my love life crash and burn.
Love is now just a foreign word,
Spoken in a tongue I’ve never even heard.
Every time I put my heart out, it gets turned away,
Is this my destiny? To be alone till my dying day?
(Pre-Chorus)
The flame in my heart has all burnt out,
This heartbreak just makes me want to fucking shout.
(Chorus)
I’m living in a land of make believe,
Thinking that someone could actually love me.
But I guess I was wrong all this time,
Living in a goddamn nursery rhyme.
Waiting on a story that won’t come true,
Like a broken spell I can’t undo.
No happy ending waiting for me to tell,
Just another prince trapped in his own damn hell.
I wish their love would never fail,
But I ain’t living in a fucking fairy tale.
(Verse)
I see lovers walking hand in hand,
Like they’re living in some promised land.
While I’m standing here in the pouring rain,
Trying to drown another wave of pain.
Maybe I was never meant to be
Part of someone else’s story.
Just a ghost in every memory,
Watching love pass right through me.
Every time I try to let someone inside,
They take what they want then say goodbye.
Leave me bleeding on the bedroom floor,
Swearing I won’t fall for that shit anymore.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every promise turns to another lie,
Every “forever” is just another goodbye.
I’m sick of pretending I’ll be okay,
When every fucking hope just fades away.
(Chorus)
I’m living in a land of make believe,
Thinking that someone could actually love me.
But I guess I was wrong all this time,
Living in a goddamn nursery rhyme.
Waiting on a story that won’t come true,
Like a broken spell I can’t undo.
No happy ending waiting for me to tell,
Just another prince trapped in his own damn hell.
I wish their love would never fail,
But I ain’t living in a fucking fairy tale.
(Guitar Solo)
(Bridge)
So bury these dreams six feet deep tonight,
Let the darkness choke out every shred of light.
I’m done with the lies and the sweet disguise,
All the fake-ass love and the alibis.
Every “baby I swear” was just more bullshit,
Every kiss just another counterfeit.
If love’s some heaven I’ll never see,
Then fuck it — hell is home for me.
(Final Chorus)
I’m living in a land of make believe,
Thinking that someone could actually love me.
But I guess I was wrong all this time,
Living in a goddamn nursery rhyme.
Waiting on a story that won’t come true,
Like a broken spell I can’t undo.
No happy ending waiting for me to tell,
Just another prince trapped in his own damn hell.
I wish their love would never fail,
But I ain’t living in a fucking fairy tale.
