Don't you know that fairy tales tell a lie? Prince Charming is a player, Snow White wants to be a guy. Sleeping Beauty is just lazy, Rapunzel needs a cut, Ariel's a tomboy And Jasmine is a $lut. Happily ever after is a fake. You've always gotta give Just a little more than you take. Happiness shouldn't have to be an ending. All those princess are just pretending. When the fairy dust clears, You're in for a surprise, You married a Prince, sweetheart, And trust me, he's no prize.. Now that you're a Queen, You have to walk the walk, And when you get home late at night, Charming won't want to talk. Happily ever after isn't easy, You have to be willing To get queasy. Because you're the one who makes your happy ending, But you know that you're pretending. I know it's rough out there, You have to guard your heart. But you have to let someone in, Before something will start. Make your expectations real, And he'll come to you. And it'll be a lot of work, But it'll be worth it, too. Happily ever after isn't dead set. Because all those fairy tales Just aren't finished yet Happiness doesn't have to be an ending. All you have to do is stop pretending You've gotta stop daydreaming, True love won't find itself. You have to know who you are, Before you can be part of someone else. ~The flow isn't great, but these are lyrics, so unless you hear me singing it...~ Those who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music. |

At first i thought it cliche(dont know how to spell that)but as the poem progressed your way of words told how it is, and just what it takes to be loved. Good Job |

These lyrics are amzing! I loved how you were able to seemingly rip apart the common fairy tale, and then use it to prove your point. I apologize if this sounds nosy, but did the bluntness stem from personal experience? The more you know, the more you know you don't know.-Socrates |

Lol to answer your question, yeah, the bluntness does kind of stem from personal experience... I've been in too many relationships where I was the only one trying, lol, and I firmly believe that to make a relationship work both people have to work hard at it... Lol I was a little frustrated by mankind when I wrote this one, but it's one of my best so I'd do it all again! I SPEAK my mind because it HURTS to bite my tongue. |
