I’m so tired of pretending
Where’s my happy ending?

[VERSE 1]

I followed all the rules

I drew inside the lines

I never asked for anything that wasn’t mine
Gm                                 Eb
I waited patiently for my time
But when it finally came

He called her name
Gm
And now I feel this overwhelming pain
Eb
I mean it’s in my veins

I mean it’s in my brain

My thoughts are running in a circle like a toy train

They’re gonna bow to the Evil Queen

Your nightmare’s my dream
