Reality

Once upon a time
Long long ago
A pretty girl lived
But she was not alone
There was a prince charming
They were in love
Until one day it ended
And two became one
Reality hit
The girl realized at once
This isisn't a fairy tale
And now life sucked
Perfection became disaster
Disaster became hell
No matter how hard she tried
The fairytale died
And so did her life

Welcome to reality
Broken souls wandering alone
Welcome to the real world
Where nothings perfect
And everything’s wrong

Another story tells
Of a guy with it all
He had lots of friends
Captain of the team
And head of the class
He lived the perfect life
Until it became too much
Pressure hit
He got into drugs
Said he needed to de-stress
But now he’s a pothead
Perfection lead to stress
And stress to an addiction
He began to over dose
He lost all that he had
And now he’s a ghost

Welcome to reality
Broken souls wandering alone
Welcome to the real world
Where nothings perfect
And everything’s wrong

Nothing is forever
Perfection is only so long
Eventually even the best break down
So welcome to reality
We’ve been expecting you
