They say fairytales don't exist

Not my fault I'm an optimist, no

And I'll never change

Never change

Twin flames you dove right into my

Life headfirst

Read my mind, you knew every word

So close, on the same page, same page

Should've known there'd be a plot twist

You wrote me out, killed me off in your story

Erased my name, filled the blanks, no warning

Got me fading slow, haunted by the ghost of the you I used to know

Used to know

Did I miss a line, skip a page, where's the subtext?

Asking why, got me waiting here in suspense

Poisoned memories of who we used to be, were we just a fantasy?

Flashback, we were magic once upon a time

Tragic how it got one sided

So fast, turned me into the outcast

What kind of hero would do that?

You devised this, now it's my turn to re-write it

Solo, trying to read between the lines

Did I deserve to be villainized so cold?

Guess I'll never know

Was I nothing but a plot twist?

You wrote me out, killed me off in your story

Erased my name, filled the blanks, no warning

Got me fading slow, haunted by the ghost of the you I used to know

Used to know

Did I miss a line, skip a page, where's the subtext?

Asking why, got me waiting here in suspense

Poisoned memories of who we used to be, were we just a fantasy?

Exiled to the afterlife

Of your abandoned storylines

Monologuing in my mind

Watching from the other side

Fed me lies to keep me blind

So I skimmed over all the signs

You foreshadowed this whole time

Bolded out and underlined

Twisting fiction from the facts

Built me up to watch me crash

Fingers crossed behind your back

Story's over, just like that

Set me up to come undone

All the way from chapter one

You always knew I'd be your plot twist

You wrote me out, killed me off in your story

Erased my name, filled the blanks, no warning

Had me fading slow, haunted by the ghost of the you I used to know

Used to know

Did I miss a line, skip a page, where's the subtext?

Asking why, left me waiting here in suspense

Poisoned memories of who we used to be, we were just a fantasy
