Fairytale

Hate to break it to you, baby
but there ain't no breaking me
there was another girl before you
she did a better job, you see

she was a girl from a cold country
had the winter in her eyes
she could've been just so much more
but she'd been filled with pretty lies

she loved her books, that winter girl
and she loved her fairytales
I used to love the way she made the pavement
look like scattered dragon scales

but she forgot the world ain't made-up
city boy won't be a prince
I told her of these imperfections
and I haven't seen her since

'cause she thought that I could save her
hated me, but I'm unable
I suppose it's how she deals with
a world broken and unstable

oh she blamed me, and I blamed me,
hell, we were a perfect match
she was destructive, left me scattered
if she returns, well you should watch

because baby, there's no breaking
of an unhealed broken heart
hate to break it to you, baby
my heart was frozen from the start.
