Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Used to sleep in paper castles Kept my crown in plastic drawers Every wish on every candle Melted wax across the floor I was praying to a story Silver ink and golden seals Every monster turned to glory If I said the magic spell was real [Chorus] But I don't want a fairytale ending I want teeth I want truth I want scars that are mine All the pages that I burned I’m defending Every crack in my voice Every runaway line I was begging for a happily ever after Now I’m laughing through the ashes of that chapter [Verse 2] I collapsed in Sunday silence Halo crooked on the bed Every thought a small collision Every breath a thread of lead All the glass inside me shattering Every scream a broken prayer But the shaking and the shattering Woke a wild thing down there (oh) [Chorus] I don't want a fairytale ending I want teeth I want truth I want scars that are mine All the pages that I burned I’m defending Every crack in my voice Every runaway line I was begging for a happily ever after Now I’m laughing through the ashes of that chapter [Bridge] Let the black dress drag through rain Crown of thorns around my name Paint my eyes in midnight flame I’m still here I’m still here Every breakdown Every bruise Built a throne from all I lose If I’m cursed I get to choose How I rise How I rise (yeah) [Chorus] I don't want a fairytale ending I want teeth I want truth I want scars that are mine All the pages that I burned I’m defending Every crack in my voice Every runaway line I was begging for a happily ever after Now I’m dancing in the dark of my own chapter
