Lyrics
You never do what needs to be done
You never give me anything but lies
You said I was the world not just any one
Words mean nothing when you romanticize
You will never give up the boyhood games
You are never satisfied for what you have now
Relationships mean more than first names
Such a good actor you should take your bow
Walking gets boring, when you learn to fly
Life, to earn your place you fight for it
I prefer an ugly truth to a pretty lie
I want forever, Cinderella is a counterfeit
Never mind these hips, look into my eyes
See the anger and sadness left by you
You need to leave now, no more second tries
My empty heart has been burned through
No excuses, no letters to excuse the past
We had our moment, and now you move on
So nostalgic, I think your a pain enthusiast
So long that I felt anything, I am withdrawn
Walking gets boring, when you learn to fly
Life, to earn your place you fight for it
I prefer an ugly truth to a pretty lie
I want forever, Cinderella is a counterfeit
No dejes que la puerta te golpee al salir
No quiero volver a verte nunca más
Lo tenías todo en tus brazos
Y nunca valoraste la vida que se te dio
Ahora todo ha terminado
Walking gets boring, when you learn to fly
Life, to earn your place you fight for it
I prefer an ugly truth to a pretty lie
I want forever, Cinderella is a counterfeit.
