Fairytale

Every single day is another bad dream Thinking when I wake up you'll be next to me Like a shadow, but what do I know? It'll never be the same That's what I know You're dead Well that's what it all feels like And nothing's ever been quite right Since it all went down I know I should let this go But I'm trying to forget all the seeds you've sown Acting like you cared for me so long ago You'll never see me again, yes I know I'm living in a fairytale Weaving my words into a nest Still thinking you love me Even though I was always second best I'm living in a fairytale Where the ring upon your finger Is still there I hear you're living in your ivory tower Far away from peasants who grew you flowers Now that your knights have slayed the dragon That bothered you for so long So now I guess I'll just sit and wallow In this happily-ever afterglow You know, once upon a time we used to make love So very very long ago I know I should let this go But I'm trying to forget all the seeds you've sown Acting like you cared for me so long ago You'll never see me again, yes I know I'm living in a fairytale Weaving my words into a nest Still thinking you love me Even though I was always second best I'm living in a fairytale Where the ring upon your finger Is still there
