once upon a time in the forest
i got lost in the dark
scary shadowy trees
left me deranged
but I heard a strange clatter
i don’t believe in fairy tales
i live in fairytales
i ran and saw a shiny coin
i found the way
a pretty young deer on the hill
he struck his hoof, and disappeared
in a silver blaze
i don’t believe in fairy tales
i live in fairytales
