Fairy tales and soft white veils
Contrast with this lovers wail
For honesty and love returned
By a man who spoke with a voice that burned.
Lips of blue and palms so white
Promenade through a cold, dark night.
This is the image of the death of love
Caught between a push and shove.
Well, who would have thought thatd Id be a fool
And fall for the one who followed the rules
But behind closed doors hed trick and hed treat
Each tender word he spoke dripped with deceit.
Hidden behind a mangled mask
Lies of love become his only task
But this masquerade of love is foul
And eventually truth beings to howl
Who would have thought thatd Id be a fool
And fall for the one who followed the rules
But behind closed doors hed trick and hed treat
Each tender word he spoke dripped with deceit.
The doors, high and mighty, are open now
And all can see his fraudulent vow
To fairy tales and soft white veils
Pierced through his heart with a blunt, rusty nail.
