Why try
When we say
Goodbye
For the result
Is that we end with
A sigh

Why try
When we say
Hello
For the result
Is that we end up being
Ignored

Why try
When we say
I love you
For it turns out
It's hardly ever true
So we end up blue

Why try
When we say
I hate you
For that's not true
We just don't want
To let out our true
Feelings

Oh I over heard
That she likes him
Who cares for
If they are happy
Leave them be
For maybe they are truly meant
For each other
Maybe they make each other's day
So quit listening to what they say
And leave them be

We laugh
We cry
Until we say goodnight
Then we see scary sights
They frighten us
For they are nightmares
They are only meant to scare
The day is the time
When we say
Good morning
And repeat
As it follows
We laugh
We cry
And we then say goodnight
And repeat
For our life is a broken record
That never ends until it's broken

I woke up this morning
For I am not where I belong
I know this for I hear a sweet song
I see a puppeteer
He's joyful as can be
As he plays around with glee
I finally count to three
I now am forever me

Try and be free
Even if you don't succeed
Never give up on your
Hopes and dreams
Hard work takes time
But eventually it's all gonna be worth it
For you will have accomplished
Everything you have ever wanted
Which are your hopes and dreams

He was so fake
My heart started to break
I knew he lied
I thought he cheated
For he was never around
I saw the texts
All the girls
From the day when he was a boy
I couldn't see that I was only his toy

They are so perfect
For they end in
Happily ever after
But what if the happily ever after
Turns into a nightmare
Cinderella has her fella but what if he thinks she's crazy
Ariel has her prince but since she don't have her voice he may think she's mute
Snow White also has her prince but what if she is poisoned again
What we see as our hopes and dreams
Are never what they actually are
For they are only
Fairytales
