We would have tried,
Would we have failed?

Is it to naive to believe we'd have had a happy ending?
What's so hard to grasp about the fairy tail stories?

We would have laughed we could have laughed
but the happy endings aren't for us

Our story keeps dragging on and on
Life keeps scratching at our toes, never letting us rest

sleep is a part of the dream world we can't have
insomnia comes, shared by two people in separate rooms

we were always too naive
but I'll keep believing in a happier ending
