Testi

Mom used to tell me these stories,
With monsters and evil abound.
The dashing young hero would defeat them,
True love's kiss saves the day.
The princess awakens, they live happily,
Wands are waved and problems disappear.
I used to wish I could have their adventures,
And be the hero of my own.
"If you wish and believe, then it'll happen,
Just hold on to that magic, she'd say."
How foolish of me to believe her,
That fairy tale has long slipped away.
Cause life isn't like the stories,
We can't wish our troubles away.
And although there are demons around us,
A sword won't keep them at bay.
There are no heroes or villains or fairies,
We only fight our battles alone.
And learn to accept that the world we live in
Is far from the dreams we had known.
I try to follow the lessons I learned,
Keep my focus fixed on that star.
Find the gold, get the girl, escape from the woods,
But where has that got me so far?
When the prospect of treasure commands you,
And the fairy tale begins to fade,
The patterns of life start to fill you with dread
And you long for the dragon's tirade.
Cause life isn't like the stories,
We can't wish our troubles away.
And although there are demons around us,
A sword won't keep them at bay.
There are no heroes or villains or fairies,
We only fight our battles alone.
And learn to accept that the world we live in
Is far from the dreams we had known.
But I sense there's more to my story
Than pining, hurt, and bitterness.
We can't change the world without
First looking deeper inside.
Then life will be like the stories,
If we work to wash our troubles away.
The demons we have will be defeated,
Just maybe not in the same way.
There might be villains around us,
But there's plenty of heroes too.
And although our dreams seem distant and far,
Light will shine through and break through the dark
If we learn to see the glimmers inside.
