Fairytales

She never thought that her life could be anything that you'd see in a movie
That's until the day that this girl met me.
He never thought that he'd live to see anything that resembled a fantasy
That's until he slipped into a dream.

You told me that you would change the world
But what's the use if you can't even save this girl?
We all break hearts. We all play our parts.

She never thought in a million years anything could bring her to tears.
That's the way she's been since she was born.
He always thought he would pull through, needed her more than he ever knew.
Now he walks the streets alone each night cursing at the moon.

I'm not asking for the world.
I'd expect this from anyone but you.
If you can't tell me that we'll be safe,
then I don't know what else I can say
But I miss you.

I told me that you would change the world
But what's the use if I can't even change myself?
Now I know we all break hearts. And we all play our parts.
