All I wanted was
one chance, just
one chance to prove that
I was best for you.
I gave you my heart and received
nothing.
But
doesn't it always work out that way?

I wish that
Cinderella never got the guy.
I wish that
Sleeping Beauty never got the kiss.
I wish that
Snow White had stayed asleep.
I wish that
I had no reason to hope anymore.
Because all I have left is hope, which I
cling to with all I've got, yet I
haven't the strength to
carry on.
But it's
so much harder to fall
out of love than to fall
into it.

And I already know that I'm
not alone.
I know that
things will get better.
Don't you dare give me the
same old story anymore.
All you want to do is
focus on the easy feedback.
You never dig deeper
into my words,
into my pain.
You never realize what I'm
really saying, you
never realize;
You can't help me.
Nobody can.
