Happy Ending

I really thought that I had found my happy ending

But you broke through, I wonder; is this worth defending?

This wicked wave is crashing high upon my shore

Destroying everything and taking love to war

The walls are crumbling and the roof is caving in

He looks at me, I look at you, which side will win?

I've always loved him, I don't know if I can stop

But I melt when I see you, slowly, drop by drop

You get close to me, my heart skips, I can't speak

With him I've lost my strength, with you I get all weak

Can barely breathe as I turn my head left to right

And wonder whose bed I'll be sleeping in tonight

On the one hand, he's always been good and true

But, on the other hand, well, he just isn't you

He's always there, he catches me each time I fall

You're like a drug, without you I am in withdrawl

You're intoxicating, wild, unrestrained

He's routine that, up till now, I have maintained

I love his kisses, but you give me butterflies

I think about your lips, feel my temperature rise

My heart is torn and now it's living in two places

I can't find home, I just keep circling the bases

Inside the wreckage this tsunami's left behind

I'm searching, but I think I've truly lost my mind

And maybe part of me had begged for this collision

Forced myself to this impossible decision

But either way, I'm here and there's no turning back

Thought he completed me, feel now you're what I lack

His lullaby put me to sleep, now I'm awake

This dream that I've been living, maybe it was fake

Maybe you were sent to shake me, make me see

That what I thought was wrong, he's not my meant-to-be

In fairytales the princess has one perfect mate

One prince for her to love, no other to debate

A little girl in my tiara, been pretending

Snapped back to real life, can there be a happy ending?
