It used to feel like a fairy tale, now it seems we were just pretending
We'd fix our world, then on our way to a happy ending
Then it turned out life was far less like a bedtime story
Than a tragedy with no big reveal of the hero's glory
And it seems we weren't prepared
For a game that wasn't fair
Do we just go home? Can we follow through?
When all hope is gone, there is one thing we can do
Let's just live day by day and not be conquered by our sorrows
The past can't hold us down, we must break free
Inside we're torn apart, but time will mend our hearts
Move onward, not there yet, so let's just live
