The Happy Ending

This fairy tale is nothing more than an ancient tragedy
Even Snow White made her mother wear cement 
Let the birds peck my eyes out and blind me
To the happy ending in front of me


Here comes Cinderella walking towards the prince
She's about to get that happy ending 
While I watch from the sides, as he stares at her false beauty
What a shallow prince 


This story bores me 
Every ending is the same
The Prince will never choose the one with the flaw
Perhaps I will change now
A happy ending is too cliche anyway


Because I don't even get the satisfaction of being "Juliet"
Because in the end there is no Romeo
My destiny is to be the ugly stepsister
Forever misunderstood
My story ends the same way


To many times has the big bad wolf gotten to me
Pretending to be a Prince
I forever stray from the path
Thinking that the most beautiful flower 
Is just out of reach of
The path I'm on


Come here little girl
I see that you have been tempted by the wolf as well
Let's take this ax and stain your cloak red
To match the blood of our innocence lost 
When we strayed from the path 
And threw away our story books
