All fairy tales are lies
_____
The stars we see have been dead for ages
_____
Still I only look up
_____
Otherwise I often find the world too big
_____
Always two feet off the ground for safety
_____
Lose my footing with every step, I hope it's not much farther
_____
Thought it'd be different when I grew up
_____
But all fairy tales are lies
_____
Even the sky isn't high enough
_____
Wherever I want to go, I never get there
_____
I watch all of you from up here
_____
I set cloud nine on fire
_____
I know if I stay, there's no way back
_____
And if there is, I've no luck
_____
Even the sky isn't high enough
_____
Wherever I want to go, I never get there
_____
I think the world's not lost
_____
If it is, then please don't tell me
_____
Banged my head on the clouds
_____
Wait for the lightning till it hits me
_____
Don't know how long, but maybe I'll arrive
_____
Ask myself when, and if something happens, then what?
_____
All fairy tales are lies
_____
Yet this world isn't lost
_____
Even the sky isn't high enough
_____
Wherever I want to go, I never get there
_____
I watch all of you from up here
_____
I know if I stay, there's no way back
_____
And if there is, I've no luck
_____
Even the sky isn't high enough
_____
Wherever I want to go, I never get there
_____
Snow White's poisoned, Rapunzel's hair's turning gray
_____
The Sandman overslept and Sleeping Beauty never wakes up
_____
The man in the moon has moved, good fairies gather dust
_____
Pinocchio is plastic and Peter Pan's grown up
_____
All fairy tales are lies
_____
The stars we see have been dead for ages
_____
Gravity pulls me toward the ground
_____
And still I look up
