False Fairytale

Verse 1 You spun a tale of happily ever after, But all I heard was hollow laughter, You promised me the world, so bright, But left me wandering in the night. You wore your charm like a disguise, But I could see the truth in your eyes, You played your part, you played it well, But now I’m breaking free from your spell. Pre-Chorus I was your princess in the tower, But you never had the power, You built a castle on the sand, Now it’s slipping from your hand. Chorus False fairytale, that’s what we were, A story written in a blur, You tried to keep me in your world, But I’m not your diamond, I’m your pearl. False fairytale, it’s come to an end, No more pretending we can mend, You thought you’d keep me in your lie, But now it’s time to say goodbye. Verse 2 You painted pictures in my mind, Of a love that was one of a kind, But every stroke was a deceit, And now your masterpiece’s incomplete. You thought I’d never see the cracks, But now I’m never looking back, You wrote the script, you set the stage, But I’m walking out of your cage. Pre-Chorus I was your princess in the tower, But you never had the power, You built a castle on the sand, Now it’s slipping from your hand. Chorus False fairytale, that’s what we were, A story written in a blur, You tried to keep me in your world, But I’m not your diamond, I’m your pearl. False fairytale, it’s come to an end, No more pretending we can mend, You thought you’d keep me in your lie, But now it’s time to say goodbye. Bridge Now the pages start to tear, And the truth is in the air, Every lie you tried to weave, Is the reason why I leave. Chorus False fairytale, that’s what we were, A story written in a blur, You tried to keep me in your world, But I’m not your diamond, I’m your pearl. False fairytale, it’s come to an end, No more pretending we can mend, You thought you’d keep me in your lie, But now it’s time to say goodbye. Outro No more castles, no more kings, Just the freedom that truth brings, I’m writing my own story now, And I’m leaving you behind, somehow.
