Fairytale

They say, "Life is what you make it."

So, I'll make it into a fairytale.

I'll travel the world, and I'll save it too.

But, I'll do it without leaving my room.

I don't care about the plot holes.

I don't care if that's not how the world works.

This is the inside of my mind.

I can do what I like.

So, let's have sword fights. Or magic.

A forbidden romance filled with drama.

Let's tame a dragon. Let's rule a kingdom.

Let's get betrayed by a character that I didn't care about.

But whatever you do, don't mention reality.

Just keep going.

These stories are just for you and me.

So, who cares what the critics would say?

We've got passion and beauty and excitement.

The rest of the world is buying lottery tickets.

But, we can pay with gold coins,

just because we decided it.

We'll worship the stars and the moon.

Fight off the darkness, until it bends to our will.

It won't be easy, but in our world everything works out in the end.

No one gets hurt. Nothing gets destroyed.

The harshness of the real world can't come in,

if we build the walls high enough, with a moat and a drawbridge.

This is my perfect dream.

But dreams have to end.

Time to wake up.
