Fairytale

Fairytale

Once upon a time,
there was a fairytale.
Listen closely, and you might hear it;
the gears of it clinking together. 

I was the princess,
and you were the evil witch.
Locked away within a tower,
neither of us could see much.

Is it broken?
Are you broken?
Your black fazed eyes gazed into the dark,
and to save yourself, you broke me.

Once upon a time,
there was a fairytale.
Listen close, there is the sound;
the gears of it thunking together.

You were the princess,
and I was the evil witch.
Without a deep forest to escape to,
neither of us could see much.

Is it broken?
Am I broken?
With no tangible words to hold onto,
I left my voice in the sea. 

Once upon a time,
there was a fairytale.
Listen closely, you can hear it;
the gears of it grinding together.

I was the princess,
and you were the evil witch.
without a single shard of shining armor to be found,
neither of us could see much.

Is it broken?
Are you broken?
without knowing what you were searching for,
you cried in pain.

Once upon a time,
there was a fairytale.
Hold your ears, the sound is overflowing;
the gears of it are clanging and breaking.

You were the princess,
and I was the evil witch.
without a spell to release us from our curse,
we couldn't see a single thing in front of us.

Is it broken?
Am I broken?
We both know there is no happy ending;
there is no easy solution.

Once upon a time,
there was a fairytale.
The machine broke down,
and all we have is tomorrow.

Once a long time ago,
there was a fairytale.
We are broken in this real world,
yes it is true; I hate you. 

A long time ago,
there used to be a fairytale.
If you want to heal us,
don't pretend there's a prince who's waiting.

Is it broken?
Are we broken?
The paper scraps of our story book
are floating in the wind.

There is no fairytale. 
If you want to heal us,
stay by our side, and slowly hand us tiny joys,
overflowing like pebbles in our hands,
until we break again.
