Inspired by Nick and Alice

lyrics

White picket fence dream with the fairy tale ending
But the happily ever after started to crumbling
I thought I was dreaming but it’s more like a nightmare
I don’t know how we got to here

This all fell apart
That’s not what I want
I tried to be good
But I wasn’t enough

Everywhere I look I see ghosts
The whispers of a forever I wanted the most
And when I close my eyes I see your face
But you’re gone when I open them up again

I play it over again; all that was said
Could haves and would haves running wild in my head
I thought I knew this story; I tried to play my part
But I had it all wrong the very start

I tried to be perfect
I couldn’t hit the mark
I tried to hold together
But it all fell apart

We tried
But it was never meant to be
Too good to be true
That’s what you were to me
Ran too many times
Found too many ways to hide
We have to face it this time
It’s time to say goodbye
