The fairy tales taught to us when we are small


They don't mean anything at all


No knight in shining armor


No prince to kiss our worries away


False hopes & fantasies


Dashed by the reality of today


No glass slipper


That just doesn't fit


Into my life


I won't believe it


Now the evil I can see


In the mirror it calls to me


I know of what is fair & true


It's not the myths


Taught by you


No midnight chimes


To change my fate


No magic potions


To relieve this hate


No fountain that will bring me youth


Bitter realism is my truth


No longer to waste my life spending


Searching for the happy ending
