"Fairytale" lyrics

I never thought that I'd be broken
I never thought I'd write this song
Tell the world what's going on
Never thought that I'd be done this way
Boy, you really done me good
Oh boy, you done me wrong

I never thought I'd be mistaken
Always thought that I would know
I thought that I would know
The little signs that gave it all away
Boy, you really done me good
Oh boy, I gotta say

This isn't a fairytale
It's not a dance at the ball
Oh, what's a knight in shining armor
When he goes and blows it all

I'll never be a paramour
To your old cliché
Oh, when I take my sword and let it fall
Cut rotten love away, away

Whenever we were left in silence
Whenever I was on my own
I was sure our love was strong
This fool was left to think it's all okay
Boy, you really done me good
Boy, I gotta say

This isn't a fairytale
It's not a dance at the ball
Oh, what's a knight in shining armor
When he goes and blows it all

I'll never be a paramour
To your old cliché
Oh, when I take my sword and let it fall
Cut rotten love away

So lick your wounds and comb your hair
You'll find yourself some other mare
This ruling is shut, you'll find me in reality
And when I listen late at night
I can hear the sound of crumbling fantasy

This isn't a fairytale
It's not a kiss under the stars
Here's to your happy ever after
Too bad it wasn't ours

I'll never be a paramour
To your old cliché
Oh, when I take my sword and let it fall

(Some fairytales
They fall apart
What good is love
If not for broken hearts)

Oh, some fairytales
They fall apart

I'll never be a paramour
To a washed-up cliché
Oh, when I take my sword
And let it fall
Cut rotten love away, away
Cut rotten love away
