Storybook Endings
At the start, with our spark
We set the world ablaze
But as the fire faded
We felt it melt away
Cause first loves seem always doomed to fail
And inside I know better
But I can't help but hope for
A second chance at what I missed
This perfect life with you
But if an unfair hand is what we're dealt
We'll just have to make do
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
Cause storybook endings don't wait for us all
I've been hoping to find you in the diner
Where we always used to meet
We'd order shakes and reminisce
About times long past
But life's not a fairy tale or so I've learned
We don't always get what we think we deserve
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
Cause storybook endings don't wait for us all
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
Cause storybook endings don't wait for us all
I still stay up on Thursday nights
But I don't need a place to hide
The weight's not gone, but I can finally breathe
Maybe they were onto something
Gotta fake it till you make it
And pray you buy yourself in the role
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
I know this isn't perfect, but it's enough
We set the world ablaze
But as the fire faded
We felt it melt away
Cause first loves seem always doomed to fail
And inside I know better
But I can't help but hope for
A second chance at what I missed
This perfect life with you
But if an unfair hand is what we're dealt
We'll just have to make do
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
Cause storybook endings don't wait for us all
I've been hoping to find you in the diner
Where we always used to meet
We'd order shakes and reminisce
About times long past
But life's not a fairy tale or so I've learned
We don't always get what we think we deserve
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
Cause storybook endings don't wait for us all
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
Cause storybook endings don't wait for us all
I still stay up on Thursday nights
But I don't need a place to hide
The weight's not gone, but I can finally breathe
Maybe they were onto something
Gotta fake it till you make it
And pray you buy yourself in the role
Who'd have thought the movies lie
The happy endings just disguise reality
Where it all falls apart
Maybe I've been searching in all the wrong places
I know this isn't perfect, but it's enough
