Fairytales

Drown the noise out please,
Stop the screaming, the shouting in my ears,
Won't someone take me away from here?


Oh, I've lived a thousand lives in this head of mine,
I've walked down aged streets, seen the fairy tales,
All through my minds eye.


So I guess i'm one of the lucky ones,
When life gets too much,
I escape to my unreality,
I indulge in my biggest fantasy.


Oh, I've lived a thousand lives in this head of mine,
I've walked down aged streets, seen the fairy tales,
All through my minds eye.


But it's getting harder to escape reality's grasp,
Am I childish? Not wanting to let go of my fantasy realms,
Of my dark, brooding hero's.
Oh, I've lived a thousand lives in this head of mine,
So tell me, if i've walked down aged streets,
If i've seen the fairy tales,
Why can't I live them for real,
Why is reality so depressing,
Let me escape, don't tell me i'm too old for fairy tales.

Cat_Monty Basically all the random lyrics i write :)

These lyrics are just my random inner thoughts, I'm not trying to offend anyone or anything like that, if you don't like something i write, please don't have a go. I don't try to push my beliefs on people and i'd appreciate it if others returned the favour :)

I'll try and give some explanation behind each one:
