LYRIC FOR SALE

By Magenta Mara

Chorus
Training without a soundtrack
Not every love is unrequited
The narrator has all of the facts
You don't have to swap notes in silence
And all these cliches, it's time they passed

Verse 1
The chosen one is destined to destroy the universe
Fall in hate at first sight because kisses are a curse
No monologues from the villain, they just proceed with their plans
The mentor will survive but the mentee fails and dies
The final battle is resolved through a few exchanged words
You were awake the entire time and you cannot press reverse

Bridge 1
Damsel in distress has to stop depending
No twists and turns to change the tale
The sidekick isn't your precious joker
Don't expect your happy ending
Fiction and reality are never blending

Chorus
Training without a soundtrack
Not every love is unrequited
The narrator has all of the facts
You don't have to swap notes in silence
And all these cliches, it's time they passed

Verse 2
The riches turn to rags, mansions into shacks
You don't know the enemy so you don't need to think back
No danger put on hold, no one will save the day
You weren't descended from royals, sorry to break it to you
Don't make friends along the way, stay on the right track
Not everyone's misunderstood, some people are just that bad

Bridge 2
Your past was perfectly normal, so stop pretending
Chekhov's gun is nowhere to be seen
Loved ones are not just videos from the past
Don't expect your happy ending
Fiction and reality are never blending

Chorus
Training without a soundtrack
Not every love is unrequited
The narrator has all of the facts
You don't have to swap notes in silence
And all these cliches, it's time they passed

Bridge 3
The antagonist is surprisingly defenceless
Don't sacrifice yourself, what is the point?
Love triangles are better when they're broken
Don't expect your happy ending
Fiction and reality are never blending

Chorus
Training without a soundtrack
Not every love is unrequited
The narrator has all of the facts
You don't have to swap notes in silence

Chorus
Training without a soundtrack
Not every love is unrequited
The narrator has all of the facts
You don't have to swap notes in silence
And all these cliches, it's time they passed

Outro
Don't expect your happy ending
Fiction and reality are never blending
