A Fairytale Ending
When I was young I was valiant and bold
I fought off dragons and wrestled with trolls
I was stupid, but I was brave
I'm still as stupid as I was before
And now though, I'm not that young anymore
I'm still valiant in my own little way
Limping off into the sunset
With our tails between our own legs
Remembering how it all started
And wondering if this is the way that my fairy tale ends
I still remember how gallant I felt
In a suit of armor that I made myself
Out of tinfoil and milk bottle tops
I guess I'm just like everyone else
I find it difficult to be myself
So I pretend to be something I'm not
In the end everything has to
Turn back into pumpkins and frogs
I wish that it didn't have to
And I'm wondering if this is the way that my fairy tale ends
Limping off into the sunset
With our tails between our own legs
Muttering quietly to myself
And wondering if this is the way that my fairy tale ends
