The Fairy Tale Is Just a Tale

By Meggy
When you're young
When you're young you believe everything
Stories told of all the kings and queens
And white picket-fenced yards
When you're young
A perfect match is expectation
House, kids, and jubilation
But darling, you better watch out

[pre-chorus]
Oh oh, did you know?
Did you know the castle's made of faux stone?
Every night there’s weeping and silent screaming but no healing
Oh no, oh no

[chorus]
The fairy tale is just a tale
A lie we tell
Pretend all ends well
It's a miracle if life doesn't hurt
Expectations only make things worse for all

When you're new
When you're new you trust everyone
The genie, witch, and fairy godmother
And friend who says you'll go far
When you're new
People wear a mask to hide themselves
Show you only good inside and out
But darling, they're a little more dark

[pre-chorus]
Oh oh, did you know?
Did you know the castle's made of faux stone?
The relationship was built on lies and now you find you’re on the side
Oh no, oh no

[chorus]
The fairy tale is just a tale
A lie we tell
Pretend all ends well
It's a miracle if life doesn't hurt
Expectations only make things worse for all

[bridge]
Can’t we be real?
Life is fierce enough without the fake
Authenticity aligns the hate
I’ll be okay but was about to break down, down, down
Connection saved my fate
Healed the lies diseased inside my brain
Revealed that life can still be great if you communicate
And you understand

[chorus]
The fairy tale is just a tale
A lie we tell
Pretend all ends well
It's a miracle if life doesn't hurt
Expectations only make things worse for all
