Lyrics The Birthday Massacre

The Birthday Massacre

Kill the Lights

This story's missing a wishing well

No mirror to show and tell

No kiss that can break the spell

I'm falling asleep

Every prince is a fantasy

The witch is inside of me

Her poison will wash away

The memory

We kill the lights and put on a show

It's all a lie but you'd never know

Your star will shine and then it will fall

And you will forget it all

And after midnight we're all the same

No glass shoe to bring us fame

Nobody to take the blame

We're falling apart

Every story's a waiting game

A flower for every name

Their colors are paling

In the falling rain

We kill the lights and put on a show

It's all a lie but you'd never know

Your star will shine and then it will fall

And you will forget it all

Now you know it's so much better to pretend

There's something waiting for you here

Every letter that you wrote

Has found its way to me, my dear

You can make believe that

What you say is what I want to hear

I'll keep dancing through this beautiful

Delusional career

Faking every tear

Looking like a compromised suicide

Keeping all my dreams alive
