Life Isn't a Fairy Tale

Why can't life be a fairy tale?
Where everything ends happy
Or like a fluffy romance where everything is sappy?
Why can't everyone who gets hurt will just come out okay?
But I know life isn't this way

Life isn't a fairy tale
There is still crime and pain
There are still lies and still so many people complain
There are still sad tears that fall down people's faces
In an instant your world could come crashing down
But not in a fairy tale no no
But life isn't a fairy tale

In a fairy tale you can be who you wanna be
Everyone is accepted for who they are
Sword fights and dragons and damsels in distress
But in the end it will always be okay
But life doesn't end this way cause

Life isn't a fairy tale
There is still crime and pain
There are still lies and still so many people complain
There are still sad tears that fall down people's faces
In an instant your world could come crashing down
But not in a fairy tale no no
But life isn't a fairy tale

Fairy tales are filled with such beauty
Innocence and fun
You feel like your being reborn
Like your life has just begun
You are completely in rapture
No frown will cross your face
But this isn't a fairy tale
Your face is filled with so much hate

Life isn't a fairy tale
There is still crime and pain
There are still lies and still so many people complain
There are still sad tears that fall down people's faces
In an instant your world could come crashing down
But not in a fairy tale no no
But life isn't a fairy tale

Maybe if you took my hand
You would understand
And we would go and fly away
To a faraway land
And everything would be easy and everyone would care for you
But I can't fly and this is just not true
Cause life isn't a fairy tale

Life isn't a fairy tale
There is still crime and pain
There are still lies and still so many people complain
There are still sad tears that fall down people's faces
In an instant your world could come crashing down
But not in a fairy tale no no
But life isn't a fairy tale

Oh no life isn't a fairy tale
But I wish it was
