about

Once upon a time....

lyrics

Once upon a time I sang for you, when I sat upon your bed
But the tide has turned and the past has gone, it’s only living in your head
And once upon a time in days of old, when knights so bold could be
I came along to your rescue, but you tried to rescue me

You put me in chains, I didn’t know it
You blew out my brains, I didn’t show it
Once upon a time, when dragons flew
Once upon a time, when I loved you

We cut into each other deep down to the bone
The blood it flowed like holy wine and loudly we made moan
I tried to make you love me and I guess you did the same
And when that didn’t work well then we played a different game

You put me in chains, I didn’t know it
You blew out my brains, I didn’t show it
Once upon a time, when dragons flew
Once upon a time, when I loved you

You wanted a damsel in distress, so you locked me up in your tower
I was your sleeping princess, and let you take away all my power
But one day I woke up, and saw what you had done
So I broke through all your prison thorns, and I’m still living on the run

Once upon a time I loved you and I thought that you loved me
But you didn’t want me to sing anymore you didn’t want me to be free
We sliced and diced our paradise into bitter tears of hate
And happily ever after was not to be our fate

You put me in chains, I didn’t know it
You blew out my brains, I didn’t show it
Once upon a time, when dragons flew
Once upon a time, when I loved you
But you put me in chains, I didn’t know it
You blew out my brains, I didn’t show it
Once upon a time, when dragons flew
Once upon a time, when I loved you

Once upon a time I sang for you, when I sat upon your bed
But the tide has turned and the past has gone, it’s only living in your head...
