beautiful lies don't break my heart
the pain's deep inside, it rips me apart

.

once upon a time
there was a little queen
she was just a little girl
who wanted to live her dream

.

and then came the ghosts
grinning from their graves
they whispered poisonous things
which put Daddy with them there

.

but here was the catch:
there was a secret lurking in the shadows
hush, don't say it
it was the queen's bow which shot death's arrow

.

and so she ran far, far away;
running with wolves, she could feel it in her bones
perhaps it was true
perhaps she was home

.

then came the handsome prince
shining armour and all
they were in love, or so she thought
but he failed to break her walls

.

winter came with frozen hope
she couldn't see him there
isn't this the part where he comes to save her?
ha, he'd stripped her bare

.

she was the queen, she was the leader
undisputed, powerful and feared
she could have anything in this world
but, no:
she could never be his girl.
