Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
Fairy tales only existed in my mind
And the monsters stayed underneath my bed
And dreams they drifted from my head
Now that I've awoken
I see it clearly and I realized you're broken
I feel that really there's no point in hoping
That you'd be choking on your words
[Verse 2]
I'll burst out your cellar, hold me down, take my crown
I'm no Cinderella
I've been there but I swear I'll win whatever
You try and you cry, you're tryna be clever
There's no happy ending
I'm no Cinderella
[Verse 3]
Rest the pawn alone
Spend your day sitting on someone else's throne
Shoe doesn't fit so he smashed it all to bits, as you tread on broken glass
You see that I'm leaving
So go burn now house down if that's what you feeling
I've found no way out and I stopped believing
That you'd be choking on your words
[Verse 4]
I'll burst out your cellar, hold me down, take my crown
And I've seen the ruler
I've been there but I swear I'll win whatever
You try and you cry, you're tryna be clever
There's no happy ending, I'm no Cinderella
[Verse 5]
You cannot run and you cannot hide
So you better stay, you better fight
Yeah, you cannot run, you cannot hide
So you better stay and you better fight
[Verse 6]
I'll burst out your cellar, hold me down, take my crown
I'm no Cinderella
I've been there but I swear I'll win whatever
You try and you cry, you're tryna be clever
There's no happy ending
I'm no Cinderella
