Here we are at the end of the story
a classic tale without the glory
it started out as a typical case of heartbreak
but now it's so much more than heartache
You dreamed life was a fairytale
where's my knight in shining armor?
Where's my fairytale hero?
Honey, reality is a tale of its own
(Let the panic ensue)
We're the Picassos of the poet world
painting out lyrical lines and pick up lies
I'm delusional, my fever's rising
my stomach aches and quakes at the sound of this
I am, I am the new teen idol
realize now, this is vital
we're screaming through the speaker to you
You can kill the writers, the song will live on
babe, you're doing this all wrong
am I the wicked witch from far away?
Are you the handsome prince who saves the day?
darling, do you understand what I'm saying
the girls and boys are all swaying
the missing page of the story is you
I can't wait till the ending with you
Write out the lies and lovers
running on a track around your head
you can shut your ears, your eyes
don't you dare whisper words of dread
One day you'll shut off
that symphony of sound
it keeps you up and floating
but you're going to let me down
I am, I am the new teen poet
don't deny that you know it
I'm changing my whole tune
You can kill the writers, the song will live on
babe, you're doing this all wrong
am I the wicked witch from far away?
Are you the handsome prince who saves the day?
darling, do you understand what I'm saying
the girls and boys are all swaying
the missing page of the story is you
I can't wait till the ending with you
Take a deep breath and look around
put away the storybook
the pop-ups go down
fiction is fiction, reality is real
this is how you need to feel
You can kill the writers, the song will live on
babe, you're doing this all wrong
am I the wicked witch from far away?
Are you the handsome prince who saves the day?
darling, do you understand what I'm saying
the girls and boys are all swaying
the missing page of the story is you
I can't wait till the ending with you
I can't wait till my ending with you
