lyrics

Fairy Tale

Used to be a way
that I could find a Leprechaun
To bring the gold my way,
but he don’t feel like sharing
Hair of gold, they say
will only stay for oh, so long
By the end of day
she’s gone, I look into the sun

West on the horizon, oh
feels like my love’s dyin’,
Best put on my Fairytale
I’ll never get loved but I’ll never get left behind
Oh no no no no no...
It’s my Fairytale
And I don’t want to leave here

Missed a month already on my rent,
Don’t know where to go
And though the monster comes for my girl alone
I can’t save her
Poster bride, they say,
but posters only last so long
I’ll paint another way
And then she’ll be my prisoner again,
Then she’ll be my prisoner…

In my fairytale
I’ll never get loved but I’ll never get left behind,
Oh no no no no no...
It’s my Fairytale
I never want to leave her

And now I look into the mirror,
don’t know what I see
These cracks and scratches in my eyes
Won’t stop staring at me
So I think I’ll pack my bags
It’s time I found another road
But before, before I can leave
Time enough, time enough for another episode

West on the horizon
Feels like my love is dying
Guess it's back to fairy…tale…

In my fairytale
I’ll never get loved but I’ll never get left behind,
Oh no no no no no...
It’s my Fairytale
I never want to leave here

I’m gonna get you every inch of your life,
For every hit there’s a miss, cyanide
If it’s a pistol or a fist or a bone, it’s breaking

In my fairytale
I’ll never get loved but I’ll never get left behind,
Oh no no no no no...
It’s my Fairytale
I never want to leave here
