Happily Never After

There's so much more I wanted for us
Never thought our adventure would end

At least not the way that it actually ended
We were robbed of our happily ever after

I used to always dream that we would escape
All of our problems, the prison we lived in

Leave the dumpster fire of the world behind
Start a new life without all the pain we carried

Running without ever stopping to look back
Our hair flying in the wind, our hearts racing

Looking at each other with such wide smiles
Knowing no one would ever hurt us again

We both craved that happy end for us both
Instead the world kept pushing us down

We would barely manage to get up and stand
Just to get shoved and pushed down to fall

It broke me to see your light of hope burn out
You laid there not having any fight left in you

I never wanted to give up on my dream of us
Everyone told me it was just wishful thinking

That I needed to see reality for what it was
Finally the dream was ripped way from me

Everything went dark when your heart stopped
The pages were ripped straight from my heart

Left here in prison without the light of hope
Without the warmth of your unconditional love

Wishing this story would finally come to end
That way I could run to you and never leave
